Montessu Isola dei Nuraghi - Agricola Punica

With the Agricola Punica Montessu Isola dei Nuraghi comes a first-class red wine in the swirled glass. Here it offers a wonderfully dense, crimson color. If you give it some air by swirling, this red wine reveals a high viscosity, which is evident in clear church windows at the edge of the glass. With a little time in the glass, this red wine from Italy reveals wonderfully expressive aromas of plum, blackberry, blueberry and black cherry, rounded out by sun-warmed rocks, cinnamon and black tea.

This wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor. It was bottled with only 1.2 grams of residual sugar. As you would expect from a wine in this price range, this Italian naturally enchants with the finest balance despite all its dryness. Taste does not necessarily need sugar. Due to the balanced fruit acidity, the Montessu Isola dei Nuraghi flatters with a soft mouthfeel, without lacking freshness at the same time. In the finish, this good storable from the wine-growing region of Sardinia finally inspires with beautiful length. There are again hints of blackberry and black currant.
