In cantina Vigne Cappato: lunga vita al Vermentino
Meet Salvatore Camedda, for little under a year, the patron-chef at Somu in San Vero Milis. A nice discovery
You won’t arrive in San Vero Milis by chance. The secluded village with 2500 inhabitants is in the region of Campidano di Oristano, close to the Montiferru mountain chain, a 20 minutes’ drive from the sea and from Cabras. According to Wikipedia it is “famous for its artisanal production of cane baskets, for Vernaccia wine and mandarins; it is known among animal lovers for the feline colony of Su Pallosu, for whose preservation the then president of the Republic of Italy, Giorgio Napolitano, fought”. We had no idea of all this, and we would have continued on our road, if it wasn’t for the brilliant recommendation given by Piero Pio Pitzalis and Domenico Sanna, whom we thank: «There’s a new restaurant there that you must try».
