Description

Agricola Punica is a joint venture between the globally iconic Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia Group of Bolgheri in Tuscany, Sardinian winery Cantina di Santadi and the legendary Tuscan consulting oenologist Giacomo Tachis. It was Tachis who originally saw the potential for Carignan, plus classic Bordeaux grape varieties on Sardinia, and this blend reveals that in spades. 60% Carignan with 10% each of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Cab Sauvignon and Syrah aged 12 months in French Oak barrels. Fruity, elegant, and finely structured combining all the favourite things we love about Tuscan and Bordeaux reds. Montessu is enchanting, complex, full-bodied and extraordinary value, capturing the best attributes of Italy and Bordeaux! Enjoy through 2030+.

Smells

Elegant florals over dark berries, cherries and plum with fine cedary oak... very alluring aromatically!

Tastes

Beautifully luscious tirade of black fruit with a myriad of savoury, dried herb, spice, and chocolate Gateaux sub flavours. Elegant tannins and gently salivating acids bring this superb, generously flavoured red to a delicious crescendo. Enjoy now through 2023+ with grilled meats, hearty stews and pork/beef/mushroom inspired cannelloni. The recommended serving temperature is 16-18 degrees.
