G’oceano (2019) - Arvisionadu

Nel cuore del Logudoro, in Sardegna, sorge la cantina Arvisionadu, custode di un vitigno raro e affascinante: l'Arvisionadu. Questo vitigno autoctono, che dà vita al vino G’oceano, è avvolto da un alone di mistero e tradizione. Si narra che il nome "Arvisionadu" derivi da una parola sarda che significa "avvistato", in riferimento alla sua scoperta casuale tra le colline sarde. La denominazione Isola dei Nuraghi IGT, sotto cui viene prodotto, richiama le antiche torri di pietra che punteggiano il paesaggio, simboli di una civiltà millenaria.
