What January feels like

January is Sardinia at its quietest and most local. The light is low and clear, the beaches belong to dog walkers, and inland the bars fill with talk instead of tourists. Mid-month the mountain villages light the bonfires of Sant'Antonio Abate, the first stirring of carnival, and by late January the first almond blossom appears in sheltered corners. It is a month for slow food, museums and bright, blustery coastal walks. Around Sassari and the Logudoro it is an inland story of wheat country, Romanesque churches and Sardinia's second city.

Cellar doors are quiet and winemakers have time to talk: the best months for Cannonau and Vermentino tastings.
