Meigamma is a 1.1-hectare estate in Villasimius, Cagliari Province, run by Barbara and Giuseppe Pusceddu. The vineyard sits on sandy soils approximately 600 meters from the Mediterranean Sea, within the Capo Ferrato subzone of the Cannonau di Sardegna DOC. Grapes are farmed without herbicides, pesticides, or any synthetic inputs, and are harvested entirely by hand.
This rosato is made from 100% Cannonau vinified in rosé with a brief maceration on the skins. Fermentation is spontaneous using native yeasts, and the wine ages in contact with noble lees in used barriques. No fining or filtration is applied, and no sulfites are added until bottling.
Cannonau is genetically identical to Grenache and is the most widely planted red variety in Sardinia. In coastal Villasimius, sandy soils and constant sea breezes moderate the variety's naturally high alcohol and amplify its saline, floral character. The Capo Ferrato subzone covers the southeastern communes of Castiadas, Muravera, San Vito, Villaputzu, and Villasimius.
The 2017 vintage is a still, dry rosé. Expect fragrant flowers, fresh red fruit, and a saline finish typical of this coastal terroir. Best served at 50-54°F.
