The wine
Movviu is a demi sparkling white wine that reflects the lively freshness typical of Sardinia. Made from Cannonau grapes, this demi sparkling wine is crafted with a soft pressing followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine's natural effervescence is preserved through a second natural fermentation. In the glass, it displays a bright straw yellow color with fine, persistent bubbles. On the nose, it offers an aromatic bouquet of white flowers, fresh citrus, peach, and green apple, with a subtle mineral hint. On the palate, it is vibrant and light, with a refreshing finish supported by fine bubbles. Movviu pairs wonderfully with seafood dishes like raw fish appetizers or shellfish, as well as salads and fresh cheeses. Ideal for outdoor aperitifs at sunset, summer seafood dinners, or a relaxing evening with friends.
The winery
The Cantina di Castiadas is a reference point in the southeast Sardinian viticulture, combining deep respect for the terroir with technological advancement. This social partnership is exemplary in merging traditional winemaking practices with modern innovations, establishing an inseparable bond with the land through its members. The predominantly cultivated grape varieties, Cannonau and Vermentino, find their ideal habitat in the Mediterranean climate of the region, tempered by the proximity to the sea. Modern winemaking ensures the fidelity of varietal characteristics, emphasizing the uniqueness of Castiadas' terroir, a blend of granitic sands and clays that impart intensity and minerality to the wines. This synergy between nature and technique leads to the creation of wines that not only reflect the essence of the terroir but also narrate the history and cultural traditions of Sardinia, offering a tasting experience deeply rooted in the island's customs.
