Sardinia

The Mediterranean Island of Sardinia sits 124 miles off the coast of Italy, and has its own unique culture and heritage – it didn't officially become part of Italy until 1861.

Sardinia has become a famous gastronomic destination, thanks to its fabulous cheeses and cured meats. But for wine lovers the island's more famous for its two regional grapes – the rich and bold red Cannanau di Sardegna,  and refreshing white Vermentino.
