This past September, Gordon’s Events & Marketing Director Chelsea Bell traveled to Sardinia to explore the island’s remarkable wines and meet the people behind them. Among her most memorable visits was Sa Raja, where she hopped into a pickup truck with head honcho Matteo, alongside brand ambassador and translator Claudia, expecting a quick tour of the property. What followed was an entire day immersed in Sardinian hospitality, capped off with an unforgettable seafood lunch overlooking the turquoise waters and Tavolara Island. It was the kind of spontaneous, authentic wine-country experience that reminds us why we love what we do: discovering incredible wines through the people, places, and stories that bring them to life.
Nestled in the heart of Gallura along Sardinia’s celebrated Emerald Coast, Sa Raja is producing some of the island’s most exciting wines. With 49 hectares of sustainably farmed vineyards, the estate combines Sardinia’s deep-rooted winemaking traditions with a thoughtful, modern approach that allows each grape and vineyard site to shine. Granite-rich soils, Mediterranean breezes, and a commitment to biodiversity shape wines that are vibrant, expressive, and unmistakably of their place.
For those looking to explore Sardinia, two grapes offer the perfect introduction: Vermentino and Cannonau, the island’s distinctive expression of Grenache. Sa Raja’s Vermentino is focused and refreshing, with bright acidity, fragrant herbal notes, and a captivating saline minerality that makes it a natural match for seafood. The Cannonau offers a taste of Sardinia’s sun-soaked interior, complemented by supple tannins that pair beautifully with roasted meats, rustic pastas, and hearty Mediterranean fare.
These are wines that capture the essence of island living, from the salty Mediterranean breeze to the rugged, sun-drenched countryside. And with Sardinia renowned for its extraordinary longevity and centenarian culture, what better way to embrace the island’s spirit than by pouring a glass and lingering a little longer around the table?
Chelsea’s visit left a lasting impression, and we think these bottles will make quite an impression on you, too. Order HERE thru EOD October 25th, scroll below to check out the rest of this week's flash offers & our incredible event line up!
