"Thoughtfully modernized in 2024, Contini is one of the most historic producers in Sardinia. This 100-hectare estate is divided between Penisola del Sinis, Pendici del Monte Arci and Valle del Tirso. This white wine reminds me of a great pilsner—subtle fruit, plenty of delicacy, finesse, and a subtle bitterness—and just dangerously easy to drink with or without a meal. A squeeze of lemon, bitter herbs, and tea all harmonize for peak crushability. If you’re the kind of person that enjoys drinking a cold glass of cucumber water on a warm summer day—this wine may be for you. A thoughtful pairing for artichokes, endives, oysters (on the half shell or fried)—though also a delight of an aperitif all on its own."
--Codey Foster, Wine Director
