Vermentino di Gallura Vigna Ngena Capichera
Vermentino di Gallura Vigna Ngena Capichera
The word “Vigna 'Ngena” in the Gallurese dialect means
"someone else's or foreign vineyard": this name was chosen
because it was initially produced with grapes from vineyards
under management, but today they have become property. The
history of this Vermentino and the Capichera winery began
over thirty years ago in Gallura, an area located in the far
north of Sardinia and particularly suitable for viticulture.
The land on which the Capichera vineyards stand are located
not far from Arzachena and were owned by the family since the
nineteenth century. It was in the 1970s that the Ragnedda
family began planting new Vermentino vines, the typical local
variety of grapes, and built a cellar for the production of
wines. Thus began the adventure of Capichera, which today
represents a real point of reference for the production of
Vermentino.
Vermentino "Vigna 'Ngena" has straw yellow color with
greenish reflections. On the nose hints of orange blossom,
iris, broom and hawthorn, fruity notes of yellow apple, with
a mineral hint on the finish
The taste is fresh and juicy, with a good acidity, persistent
and decisive, it closes with a pleasant fruity finish.
Guida dei vini
I greci hanno portato la vite nella penisola italiana che hanno chiamato Enotria ossia "paese del vino". I romani la diffusero nell'Impero,facendo dell'Italia uno dei luoghi cardine di questa cultura.
Si parla appunto di cultura del vino perché le varie pratiche vitivinicole hanno dato al vino significato sociale simbolico e religioso.Quando degustiamo un vino,siamo condizionati anche fattori culturali, ambientali e di stile di vita.In Italia e nell'area Mediterranea il vino assume un valore sacrale nella liturgia cristiana.
Il vino può raccontare la storia, la cultura nelle sue diverse espressioni.In un sorso di vino c’è il lavoro in vigna e in cantina.
