Samas Isola dei Nuraghi IGT - Agricola Punica

The Samas Isola dei Nuraghi from Agricola Punica of Sardinia reveals a bright, pale yellow color in the glass. On the nose, this white wine from Agricola Punica presents all sorts of pineapple, mango, passion fruit, and lemon. As if that weren’t already impressive, further aromas such as lime are added thanks to maturation in concrete.

This Italian wine delights with its elegantly dry flavor profile. It was bottled with exceptionally little residual sugar. This is a true quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler styles and thus, despite all its dryness, this Italian charmer captivates with the finest balance. Excellent flavor simply does not necessarily require residual sugar. On the palate, the texture of this well-balanced white wine is wonderfully crisp. On the finish, this youthful white wine from the Sardinian wine region finally impresses with considerable length. Once again, hints of lemon and mango appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the clay- and sand-dominated soils join in.

Vinification of the Samas Isola dei Nuraghi by Agricola Punica

The foundation for the first-class and wonderfully balanced Samas Isola dei Nuraghi cuvée from Agricola Punica consists of Chardonnay and Vermentino grapes. In Sardinia, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on sandy and clay soils. The grapes for this Italian white wine are harvested exclusively by hand when they are perfectly ripe. After hand-picking, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house, where they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in concrete at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by several months of maturation on the fine lees before the wine is finally bottled.
