More information about Tanca Farrà Alghero DOC - Sella & Mosca

With the Sella & Mosca Tanca Farrà Alghero, a first-class red wine is poured into the swirling glass. It presents a wonderfully luminous, ruby-red color. Slightly tilted, the red wine glass reveals a charming garnet hue at the edges. This Italian cuvée shows wonderfully expressive notes of mulberries, blackcurrants, fruit bread, and blueberries in the glass. Additionally, there are hints of Mediterranean herbs, lovage, and green peppers.

The Sella & Mosca Tanca Farrà Alghero presents itself to the wine lover delightfully dry. This red wine is never rough or austere, but round and smooth. The finish of this aged red wine from the Sardinian wine region, specifically from Alghero DOC, finally delights with a good aftertaste. The finish is also accompanied by mineral notes from the clay-dominated soils.

Vinification of the Sella & Mosca Tanca Farrà Alghero

This balanced Italian red wine is vinified from the grape varieties Cabernet Sauvignon and Cannonau. The vines that produce grapes for this wine grow on clay soils in Sardinia. After harvesting, the grapes are immediately transferred to the winery. Here, they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation follows in small wooden barrels at controlled temperatures. The vinification is followed by several months of aging in oak barrels. After barrel aging, the wine undergoes a significant bottle aging of 6 months, making this red wine even more complex.

Food pairing recommendations for the Sella & Mosca Tanca Farrà Alghero

Enjoy this Italian red wine ideally at 15 - 18°C as an accompanying wine to stuffed peppers, spinach gratin with almonds, or roast goose breast with ginger red cabbage and marjoram.
