PRODUCTS

The wines of the Oltremare winery come from a generous and fertile land, which gives them a unique taste, capable of conquering even the most demanding. The production is carried out respecting a modern method of cultivation and production, but at the same time attentive to traditions.

The wines are as follows:

  • Cabernet - Sauvignon vine, native to the French region of Bordeaux, is one of the most widespread grape varieties in the world. The Sardinian Cabernet is a ruby red wine, intense, with a persistent scent and evident fruity notes, ideal for meat and cheese dishes.
  • Aglianico is a well-known red grape variety, mainly cultivated in southern Italy. The Sardinian vine, which develops in mainly sunny climates, allows to obtain a wine with a marked acidity, making it perfect with dishes with a strong taste, based on roast or braised meat.
  • Merlot grape variety is one of the most popular and widespread red berried varieties in the world. The Sardinian Merlot is a soft and harmonious wine, which goes well with first courses based on meat sauces or main courses of white and red meat roasted, grilled or with roasted meat.
  • Chardonnay is a white grape variety, international, cultivated in all areas of the world. Sardinian Chardonnay has fruity notes and a balanced acidity, ideal especially for fish dishes.


COMPANY
