IGT area (country wines) for white, red and rosé wines in the Italian region or on the island of Sardinia. It covers two hectares of vineyards in 15 municipalities in the province of Nuoro. Grape varieties authorised in the region may be used. Varietal wines must contain at least 85% of the variety in question, up to 15% may be other varieties. For the wines, a minimum alcohol content is prescribed differently for each wine type, but no maturation periods.
