MONTESSU
2009 Agricola Punica
| Grapes | Cab Franc, Cab Sauv, Merlot, Syrah, Carignano |
| Colour | Red |
| Origin | Italy, Amalfi Coast |
| ABV | 14% |
Blend of 60% Carignano and 10% each Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc, each vinified separately and then aged fifteen months in new French oak 'barriques'. Fragrant and fruity this is a lighter (and more easily drinkable) expression of the first wine, Barrua. Sweet liquorice notes and fresh black fruits lead to an elegant, warm finish. L&S (Apr 2011)

Quite a bit of oak but then sweet mellifluous fruit, a bit dry on the end. In Sardinia I’d probably love it! Jancis Robinson OBE MW - www.JancisRobinson.com (Jan 2012)
