About this product

An iconic expression of Sardinia's Vermentino.
Since its inception in 1980, Capichera's Isola dei Nuraghi IGT has stood as a testament to the winery's commitment to excellence and innovation. Crafted from the estate's oldest Vermentino vines in the sun-drenched hills of Gallura, this wine embodies the essence of Sardinia's unique terroir. The name "Capichera," derived from the Latin caput erat, meaning "it was the capital," reflects the winery's deep-rooted connection to its land.

Produced exclusively from estate-grown Vermentino grapes, the wine undergoes fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures to preserve its aromatic purity.

Why we love it:
Capichera Isola dei Nuraghi IGT is more than just a wine; it's a journey into the heart of Sardinia. With its aromatic complexity and refined minerality, it offers a taste of the island's rich heritage and natural beauty. Whether you're enjoying it on a sunny Dublin terrace or pairing it with a seafood feast, this wine promises to elevate any occasion.
