Dónde: Bosa and the Planargia

Malvasia di Bosa is the wine of the Planargia: a white from Sardinian malvasia grapes, golden in colour tending to amber, with aromas of almond and dried fruit. It has had designation of origin since 1972 and is made in very small quantities, in small vineyards between Bosa, Magomadas, Tresnuraghes, Suni and other villages of the district. There is a dry version, which ages in chestnut barrels under a veil of yeasts, and a sweet one. The best way to understand it is to drink it in the vineyard.

## The Oggianu winery

The Azienda Vitivinicola Emidio Oggianu is a family winery in the countryside of Magomadas, in the Badde Nuraghe area, a few kilometres from the sea. It was started by Angelo Oggianu in 1956 with four thousand square metres of malvasia; his son Emidio, a railwayman by trade, inherited it in 1968 and, on retiring, bought the neighbouring vineyards and replanted them. Today it has about two hectares, which he runs with his son Stefano, and has been registered in the designation since 2000.

The soil is calcareous, with volcanic and sandstone mixtures, and the vineyard faces the sea. The harvest is done in October in four passes, picking only the ripe bunches each time, and they ferment with yeasts from their own grapes. What they show off most in the winery are the barrels: small, very old, of chestnut and oak, which they look after like children. Since 2022 they also make a white vermentino, the Lunai, and a malvasia eau-de-vie.

## The visit and tasting

Emidio guides you through the vineyard and winery, telling the family's story and how the wine is made, and it ends with a tasting. On Winedering, the platform through which they sell the visit, the published tasting costs from €30 per person, lasts an hour and requires a minimum of two people. There is also a private tasting of rare wines: €60 per adult, an hour and a half, with a visit to the vineyard and winery and five wines with pairing, in Italian or English, at 11:00, 11:30 or 12:00 in the morning and from 17:30 to 19:30 in the afternoon, with two days' notice and free cancellation up to the day before. You can also book by writing to the winery.

If you like the place, the Oggianus have two apartments with sea views on the same estate.

## Another Malvasia in Bosa

In the centre of Bosa, the Columbu family, who helped obtain the designation, serve their Malvasia at the Su Camasinu wine bar, in Sa Costa: it is the easy tasting if you do not want to take the car.
