Wine Tasting with Local Food Pairings guided by Sommeliers

This experience is a true journey through Sardinia’s soul, told one glass and one bite at a time. Seated in an intimate, welcoming space, guests are invited to slow down and connect with the land, the flavors, and the traditions that define this island’s rich food and wine heritage.

Over the course of the tasting, you’ll be guided through four wines, each carefully selected from vineyards no more than 100 kilometers away. These are not just wines — they are stories in a glass, representing the character of the region and the hands that have cultivated the vines across generations.

You’ll begin with a refreshing Vermentino, one of Sardinia’s most iconic white wines. Grown near the coast, this varietal captures the essence of the Mediterranean with its crisp minerality, hints of citrus, and aromatic herbs. As you sip, you’ll hear the story of the winery, the land it rises from, and the traditions that shape its production.

The second wine may take you inland, to explore a lesser-known white varietal or an expressive rosé — a moment to discover how diverse and surprising Sardinian terroir can be, even within short distances.

Next, you’ll be introduced to the island’s red heart: Cannonau, considered the oldest known grape in the Mediterranean. Bold, warm, and earthy, it’s the perfect wine to reflect the depth of Sardinian culture and its ancient roots. Again, the tasting is enriched by stories — not only of the wine itself, but of the people and philosophy behind it.

Finally, the journey might bring you to a more structured or experimental red — perhaps a blend or a native varietal from a mountainous or inland area — showcasing how Sardinia’s landscape influences every note in the glass.

Each of these wines is served with a platter of local delicacies that elevates the experience into something truly immersive. Expect a carefully arranged board of km-0 cheeses and cured meats, handpicked from nearby farms and small producers. You’ll savor aged pecorino, soft or smoked variations, and a range of Sardinian salumi, such as salsiccia sarda or coppa, all chosen to enhance and complement the characteristics of the wines.

This is not just a tasting, but a guided experience: for each wine, a knowledgeable host will describe its origin, characteristics, and food pairing. You’ll learn about the microclimates, the grape varieties, the fermentation methods, and the cultural context that make each bottle unique.

Whether you are a wine enthusiast or simply curious, this tasting offers an approachable yet deep way to engage with Sardinia’s enogastronomic excellence. The combination of premium wine, hyper-local ingredients, and compelling storytelling creates a sensory journey that leaves you both satisfied and enriched.

Ideal for couples, friends, or solo travelers, the experience is informal yet curated, rooted in authenticity rather than performance. It’s a moment to pause, connect, and taste Sardinia in its purest form.
