White peach and crisp green apple lead the way, followed by hints of pineapple, delicate white flowers and aromatic Mediterranean herbs. There is a lovely contrast between the ripeness of the fruit and the savoury, saline notes beneath it, giving this Vermentino a character that feels both sunlit and coastal.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe palate is dry and juicy, with a gently rounded texture carried by lively acidity. Orchard fruit fills the middle of the mouth, while a fine mineral thread brings definition and keeps each sip inviting. Brief ageing on the fine lees adds subtle depth, leading into a lingering, fresh and lightly salty finish. Delicious in its youth, this is a white to open for its immediate brightness, with enough substance to carry effortlessly from an aperitif into dinner.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFor when: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLunch runs late, and nobody is quite ready to leave the table.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePairs with: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpaghetti alle vongole, grilled sea bream with lemon, garlic prawns, crab linguine, courgette and ricotta ravioli, or young Sardinian pecorino.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCala Reale comes from selected Vermentino grown around Alghero in north-western Sardinia, where ancient marine soils and the nearby Mediterranean shape the vineyard landscape.
