The Pilu at Freshwater wine list has been conceived to take you on a Sardinian gourmet tour and is designed to complement
our chef/owner Giovanni Pilu’s Sardinian cuisine. More than ever and in this time of historic travelling restrictions, the concept
is being emphasized. Our offering of succulent, traditional Sardinian dishes presented by our head-chef Federico and
complemented by carefully selected Sardinian and Italian wines is our way to bring Sardinia to your table: please ask for our
seasonal degustation menu for the full experience. We have a diverse range of local wine too, largely from our own state of
New South Wales, as we love to showcase local produce. For a quicker selection, you can turn to the Sardinian wine section,
complete with maps and information on the history and varietals. In the main list, Italian and Australian wines are listed
together, by varietal, to assist in navigating through the list more easily. We have a large range of wine by the glass including a
premium selection, as well as small and large bottles. If you require guidance, a member of our wine team will be happy to
assist.

2Organic, Biodynamic, Natural and Orange W ines
As increasingly popular as they are controversial, organic, biodynamic and natural wines are now an important part of our wine
culture - here we offer a little information for those who may be curious about, or new to them. Although it may all seem a little
newage to some, it is worth noting that many of the best wines in the world from some of the most prestigious estates are made
using these methods. Organic wines are produced from grapes grown without the use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides,
fungicides and herbicides. Biodynamic agriculture is based on respect for the natural course of nature - in particular the phases
of the moon - and its resources, as well as on the use of biodynamic preparations (natural compost) in certain phases of the year.
The result will be naturally healthy plants, of high quality and able to defend themselves against parasites. Like organic wine,
biodynamic wine also does not eliminate sulphites but limits them further. Natural wines are more difficult to define, as there is
no governing body set up to control production methods, resulting in various interpretations. They are generally made with
‘minimal intervention’, using natural yeasts, and minimal or no sulphur is added. Wine is often left on skins (both white and red)
and there is no filtration, fining or adjusting. Natural wines look and taste a little different to ‘conventional’ wines, they will be
darker in colour and cloudy, and will evolve dramatically in your glass. They are food friendly, vibrant and interesting though, so
whilst not for everyone, they are most certainly worth trying. Orange wines are created when white wine grapes are treated like
red and left in contact with the juice. The longer the skins are left, the deeper the colour of the wine.

Beer in Italy was known since the seventh century BC being traded to Sicily by Phoenician merchants. Romans also produced
but small quantity of beers as they preferred wines instead. Until the mid-nineteenth century beer was consumed by a few
enthusiasts as it was completely foreign to local tradition. We need waiting until mid-twenty century for beer to become in
effect a product of common use.

Beer, being the third most popular drink after water and tea, is also one of the most widely consumed alcoholic drinks in the
world. The earliest evidence of beer production from barley comes from Iran and dates back approximately to the third century
BC. Beer is measured and assessed by bitterness, strength and color using the IBU (International Bitterness Unit) scale.

Gazetteer’. Sazerac (1 sugar cube, 3 dashes Peychaud’s bitters, 2 oz rye whiskey, ¼ oz absinthe or Herbsaint, Lemon twist) is
consider the first cocktail to be created.

The Franciacorta D.O.C.G. region that is home to Bellavista, is an area located in the hills of Lake Iseo in the province of
Brescia in the eastern part of Italy’s Lombardy region – a very restricted area of 2,800 hectares that produces some of
Europe’s best sparkling wines made in the same way as the great wines of Champagne in France where the second
fermentation takes place in the bottle.

Sardegna
10Sardinia is the second largest island in the Mediterranean and is 200 kilometres off Italy’s west coast. It is a unique region that
has spent much of its history under Spanish rule - the Spanish influence remains in Sardinia’s food, culture and wine. The
Phoenicians were Sardinia’s first foreign invaders and introduced winemaking to the island, but it was the Spanish, controlling
the island from the 14th to 18th centuries, who contributed the most to Sardinia’s wine production. The climate is Mediterranean,
with short, mild, wet winters and long, hot, dry summers. With rugged mountains and dry plains, soil types vary from sandy clays
in the south, the granite of Gallura in the north, to alluvial, gravelly soils around Oristano in the west. Today Sardinia is home to a
unique range of grape varieties, predominantly of Spanish origin. Previously known for producing bulk, fortified and
‘Meditazione’ wines (including the famous Vernaccia di Oristano from the west coast), Sardinia is now known for its highquality
table wine from Vermentino, Cannonau and Carignano. Beyond these, lay an exciting range of lesserknown varieties such as
Nuragus, Torbato, Monica and Bovale, adding diversity and interest to the Sardinian range.
Spumanti Sardi
In Sardinia sparkling wines are produced from a variety of local and international grapes (if only in fairly small quantities) and can
be dry or sweet. Tenute Olbios and Quartomoro make a sparkling wine in the ‘Metodo Classico’ (Champagne method) with
Sella e Mosca and Su Entu using the Charmat (Tank) method.

Vermentino
Some believe that it originated in the Iberian Peninsula, others in the lands of Luni, between Liguria and Tuscany; it would then
spread to France and subsequently to Corsica; from here, in the eighteenth century he would have arrived in Gallura, finding
his chosen land. Vermentino is grown throughout the Sardinian territory producing wines that are characterized by strong and
unique personalities, expression of the different production areas. The plant is vigorous, suitable for various breeding systems,
ensures a constant and generous production, expressing the essence of the Mediterranean. Vermentino is used for the
production of Vermentino di Gallura DOCG being the only wine from the island to be awarded the highest Italian classification:
Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG).

Torbato
Of undoubtedly Spanish origin, it is in Sardinia that Torbato was able to reveal its full potential, specifically in the Alghero region
characterized by a warm and dry climate and by calcareous-clayey soils, rich in sand and iron, which give the wines strength and
minerality. Torbato is generally vinified in purity and as a base for a sparkling wines (made in Charmat Method), both comprised
in the DOC Alghero. Consume with bottarga, sea urchin, seafood and spicy dishes.

Arvesiniadu
Arvesiniadu is grown almost exclusively in Goceano, region located in northwest of Nuoro and has been classified as a
"Unicum", a term used to define those vines for which no genetic correspondence has been found.
It pairs very well with cured meats being also a good accompaniment to fish soups and medium aged cheeses.

12Vernaccia di Oristano-Granazza
The name Vernaccia is derived from the Latin ‘Vernaculus’, which defines all that comes from a given place. Vernaccia di
Oristano is unique to Sardinia and unrelated to Italy’s other Vernaccia’s - it may be indigenous, or was introduced by the
Phoenecians. Vernaccia di Oristano is a historical wine, usually dry, made from over-ripe grapes in a similar style to Spanish
Sherry. Wines are aged in a system similar to Sherry’s ‘solera’ where the wines will develop ‘flor’, but Vernaccia di Oristano is
rarely fortified. These are complex wines, with deep colour and flavours of orange rind, dried apricot, roast hazelnut, tobacco,
tea and winter honey. Granazza is the local name for the same grape around the area of Nuoro in the centre of the island.

Semidano
Very unique grape most likely introduced to Sardinia by Phoenicians or the Romans, Semidano has survived almost exclusively
in the Oristano province (sub-area of Mogoro), a territory of hills of calcareous origin mixed with sands, which enjoy the
benefits of the Mediterranean climate and the mistral. In 1995 the DOC Sardegna Semidano was established, including
sparkling, superior and passito version. Semidano is a vine with a rather scarce and inconsistent production, being able to
produce wines of excellent quality. It goes well with shellfish, lobster, and more generally with all seafood cuisine.

Nuragus
Nuragus still is the most widely grown variety in Sardinia although mainly present in the provinces of Cagliari and Oristano.
Grape of ancient origin (possibly Phoenician) Nuragus has been favored by the extreme ease of cultivation and adaptability to
any type of soil.
Since 1975 the vine has its own denomination, the Nuragus di Cagliari DOC, also in the sparkling and sweet versions. Dry or
sweet, it can be paired with fried fish, crustaceans or molluscs, but also with tasty soups, always based on fish.

Grape of ancient origin whose name derives from the Latin ‘muscus’, to describe the characteristic musky aroma of the refined
wines, Nasco was on the brink of extinction and saved by a group of zealous growers from the province of Cagliari which in time
also managed to obtain the DOC - Nasco di Cagliari. There are no reports of Nasco vines outside of Sardinia, making this variety
exclusive to the Mediterranean Islands where grows almost solely on the calcareous soil of Campidano di Cagliari. Its grapes can
be used to produce wines in dry(secco), sweet(dolce), fortified(liquoroso) styles with musky tropical flavours. Dry versions can be
consumed with rich fish and white meat dishes while sweet one are a real treat with local sweet and cheeses.

Cannonau
Cannonau is the most widespread black grape variety in Sardinia and certainly the best known outside the island. It is grown
throughout the region, although the greatest concentration is found in the central areas, in particular in the Nuorese and
Ogliastra. The DOC was recognized in 1972. For a long time it was believed that Cannonau was originally from the Iberian
Peninsula (Garnacha); however: some important archaeological finds have made it possible to confirme that nuraghic
populations cultivated vines and produced wine from an ancestor grape of Cannonau.
It is great with suckling pig and game dishes - styles range from medium-bodied and soft, to rich, supple and powerful.

Argiolas ‘Turriga’
Manufactured in the heart of Sardinia, from vineyards with extraordinary exposure, the Turriga is a wine able to surprise and to
demonstrate the high quality year after year, confirming it as one of the greatest Italian red wines and, of course, a wine symbol
of Sardinia. This wine is made exclusively from native grapes of Cannonau and Carignano. It isthe creation of Giacomo Tachis,
one of the greatest Italian oenologist and the father of Sassicaia.

Monica
Monica is one of Sardinia’s oldest varietals and was possibly brought to the island by Spanish monks in the 11th century. It is
grown in the southern half of the island, mainly on the Campidano Plain, where it produces a medium bodied, well structured
wine. Consume with suckling pig and game dishes.

Cagnulari
14Cagnulari or Cagliunari, is a red grape variety mainly grown in the north-western area of Sardinia. Recent studies have
highlighted similarities with Graciano (Rioja-Spain) and Bovale Sardo, another native Sardinian variety; it would therefore be the
fruit of a cross between these two varieties.
Cultivated with excellent results by a handful of wineries, is a complicated variety which has found its ideal habitat in loose
alluvial soils not far from the sea and whose sensitivity to various climatic factors requires careful and constant work in the
vineyard as well as in the cellar. Drinks well with meat dishes
2018 Agricola Quartomoro ‘CGN’ – Isola dei Nuraghi IGT Arborea, Oristano 125
Bovale
Bovale (also known as Nieddera or Muristellu/Muristeddu) is related to the French Mourvedre and Spanish Monastrell. In
Sardinia there are two distinct clones; Bovale Sardo (regarded as the superior clone), and Bovale Grande (or Nieddera), which is
widely planted around Oristano. Wines produced are medium to full bodied and supple, with earth, spice, and dried herb
flavours. Drink with lamb, goat and beef dishes.

Carignano
Carignano is mainly grown in the Sulcis area, in south-western Sardinia and certainly is one of the most interesting vines of
Sardinian enology. It may have been introduced to the island by the Phoenicians but a second hypothesis links its introduction
to the Aragonese period. In 1977 the DOC Carignano del Sulcis was recognized alongside with various IGTs. The vine has a
strong resistance to sea winds, which allowed it to develop on the sandy and sunny soils of the Sulcis where it it is mostly
grown on ungrafet roots. Drink with slow roasted lamb, goat and beef dishes.

Italian winemakers have a real passion for making sweet wines; they love to dry grapes on the vine, on mats in the sun,
or in ventilated barns - a method is known as ‘passito’. Sardinia is no exception and with its hot climate, many intense styles are
produced. Sardinian sweet wines are usually made from Nasco, Moscato and occasionally with Vermentino.

Cork stoppers are produced from the bark of Quercus suber (the Cork Oak), which is endemic to southwest Europe and
northwest Africa. Once the trees are about 25 years old the cork is traditionally stripped from the trunks every nine to ten years,
with the first two harvest, generally producing lower quality cork. The trees live for about 300 years.

Nebbiolo - Chiavennasca
Nebbiolo is indigenous to the Langhe area in Piedmont and gives birth to one of the greatest Italian red wines: BAROLO, the
king of wine and the wine of kings which was one of the first three Italian wines to be awarded DOCG status when the
classification was introduced in July 1980.
The Barolo area is restricted to a handful of ‘communes’ which produce slightly different styles according to soils and
mesoclimates. Wines from the villages of La Morra and Barolo are generally aromatic and fruity with La Morra producing the
most perfumed and graceful wines, while the one from Barolo tend to be more complex and textural. Castiglione-Falleto,
Serralunga d'Alba and Monforte produce more structured wines that require longer aging with Serralunga d’Alba barolos
being the most tannic of the five.

Sangiovese is the most cultivated red grape varietal of Italy. It seems that Sangiovese was already known to the Etruscans and
that the name derives from Sanguis Jovis, Blood of Jupiter. It can produce wine with perfect balance, with very fine perfumes,
floral, but fragile. Possibly the most popular and important wine derived from Sangiovese is Brunello di Montalcino.

Brunello di M ontalcino
Produced in the medieval village of Montalcino in the province of Siena, in 1980 Brunello di Montalcino was awarded the
first Denominazione di Origine Controllata e Garantita (DOCG) designation and today is one of Italy's best-known and most
revered wines. Vineyards in Montalcino are planted in varied soils, including limestone, clay, schist, volcanic soil and a crumbly
marl known as ‘galestro’ at altitudes ranging from 149m to 500m. Brunello di Montalcino is made 100% from Sangiovese.
