Sardinia is a region rich in culture and ancient traditions, a jewel of the Mediterranean where enchanting white sandy beaches alternate with rocky coasts; the hinterland holds Nuragic treasures and mountain landscapes, wild mountains and ancient archaeological sites. The rich Sardinian culture is expressed through the ancient language, traditional music and craftsmanship. Fregola, pane carasau, culurgiones, porceddu and seadas, together with Sardinian pecorino are traditional foods, accompanied by vines such as cannonau and carignano.
