Azienda Agricola Leda' d'Ittiri, Alghero

During our stay in Alghero decided to sacrifice an afternoon of beach to visit this beautiful Winery and participate in one of the Wine Tasting organized at the estate. To our surprise, we discovered that very few Italians to participate in this type of initiative; instead worth it, to examine a little knowledge of the area and food traditions. The tasting takes place in the great Hall of the main building: our group consisted of fifteen person besides us, and we were all comfortably accommodated on coffee tables. A very nice and talented girl has guided us through the tasting. You can try 4 wines produced on the farm, in order of alcohol content. It starts with a Vermentino, the only white, continuing with three red-including two wines made with grapes that are typical of Sardinia: Cannonau and Cagnulari less famous. The wines are accompanied by tastings of local cheeses and cold meats-the ones that best combine the wines-and ends with a tasting of olive oil produced by the company (and their delicious olives). We recommend the experience not only for the quality of products offered, but also for the preparation and the passion demonstrated by those who welcomed us, led during the tasting, told the story of the company-which inevitably is intertwined with the history of the territory-and explained the why and wherefores a wine comes in a certain way, has that flavor and that color. We would have loved to attend the Wine Tour, tasting experience that combines a guided tour in the vineyards and the olive grove, but unfortunately stumbled into the wrong dates. If we return to those areas of Sardinia, definitely we'll try again!

Beautiful, comfortable surroundings, friendly, authentic wines and olive oil. There are 4 wines for tasting at the disposal, 1 white, 3 red, there is something for every taste.
