Nuragus. This is a white grape variety grown in Sardinia. Not a high-flyer, but Nuragus can produce quite nice wines if the winemaker doesn't leave the pruning shears hanging in the shed for too long. Then Nuragus offers uncomplicated, fresh, and fruity drinking pleasure with a typical Italian bitterness in the finish.
The Nuragus grape has been growing in Sardinia for centuries. No one knows exactly how long. The Phoenicians may have brought it to the island as early as the 12th century. It is now the second most widely planted white grape there. It doesn't have a spectacular reputation. Especially if the vines aren't pruned enough, wine from the Nuragus grape can be dull and heavy. Fortunately, many winemakers know better, and some excellent Nuragus wines are appearing on the market. The best are under the Nuragus di Cagliari DOC appellation.
We currently have one wine made from the Nuragus grape in our range. You can view our Nuragus wine here.
