Montessici is the name given to the incredibly unique Nasco Di Cagliari, produced by Cantina Di Dolianova. Nasco is one of the oldest white grape varieties grown in Sardinia, often referred to as Nascu in Sardinian dialect which has been drawn from a Latin word Muscus, which is generally used to indicate the strong and obvious musky scent. This beautiful white wine maintains the perfect balance of sweetness but overall dry. Notes of honey and dry fruits yet buttery and full bodied with an almond finish. Many claim the Montesicci to be amongst the top white wines of Sardinia.

After fermen- tation, the wine is drawn off and ageing takes place on the lees for the entire period before bottling.
