This sweet wine from Sardinia is made from 80% Nasco and 20% Vermentino. The grapes are dried naturally for 15 days on the vine then cold fermented. This rich golden wine has brilliant intense aromas and flavors of dried fruit, honey and almonds. In 1950 Salvatore Pala began his adventure with wine amongst the rolling, vine-covered hills of Serdiana, an idyllic village located in southern Sardinia. With mild winters and warm, dry summers, this part of Italy’s second-largest island is ideal for grape-growing. In 1995 Salvatore passed control of the winery operations to his sons, Enrico and Mario. Today he is still a source of advice and the guardian of the winery’s historical heritage. Pala continues to be a family-owned winery where the value of tradition and the innovation of modern techniques are both significant facets of the winemaking process.

With mild winters and warm, dry summers, this part of Italy’s second-largest island is ideal for grape-growing, with both Vermentino and Cannonau finding a special home here.

Pala owns 5 different vineyard areas with a total of 58 hectares currently under vine. Each vineyard is planted with varieties that are chosen according to the microclimate and soil type of the individual site. At Pala, respect for tradition, care and devotion to the vines, and the production of great wine have always been fundamental values.
