Produced in the Isola dei Nuraghi area, it displays a bright straw yellow colour. The bouquet reveals intense \u003cstrong\u003enotes of white peach\u003c\/strong\u003e and Mediterranean flowers.

Ageing continues on the lees in \u003cstrong\u003estainless steel tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e or vitrified cement, with periodic bâtonnage to add depth to the structure. The final rest in the bottle produces a white wine ideal for pairing with \u003cstrong\u003eraw seafood\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginating from the Sinis peninsula, \u003cstrong\u003eKarmis Cuvée\u003c\/strong\u003e celebrates the heritage of the oldest winery in Sardinia, founded in 1898.
