Founded in 1959, this wine
growers association, Cantina Castiadas Societa Cooperativa Agricola, produces wines from grapes grown in
the south-eastern part of Sardinia known as Sarrabus. Praidis was the ancient name of the area that is now the present town of Castiadas. Tasting notes: Straw in color, light and lively that finishes with a hint of honeysuckle in the taste. Try it with all sorts of seafood, hard cheeses or sip it on its own. |
