"Antico Gregori" Vernaccia di Oristano Riserva DOC 1976 dolce is a special wine from Sardinia that was awarded Dessert Wine of the Year by Gambero Rosso in 2021. This edition stands out for the first-ever mention of its vintage. In this particular year, a slightly larger quantity of wine was bottled than usual, leading to the decision to forgo the customary blending of the best vintages from the last century. Nevertheless, the result is breathtaking—a wine of unparalleled intensity, maturity, and depth.
