Information
Agricola Punica is a joint-venture between the mythical domain Tenuta San Guido (producer of the famous Sassicaia), the Sardinian wine merchant Cantina di Santadi and the famous Tuscan enologist Giacomo Tachis. In 2002, the first vines were bought, 170 hectares divided into two domains: Barrua and Narcao, located in southern Sardinia, in the Isola dei Nuraghi IGP. The grape varieties include Carignan, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Syrah for the red wines, whereas for the whites (5 hectares), the vineyard is planted with Vermentino and Chardonnay.
This cuvée is produced on deep clay and limestone soil with sandy deposits. The dry summer heat gives it a fruity intensity and a distinctive personality. It delivers liquorice, dried fruit, fresh herbs and elegant tannins on the palate. Ageing in French barrels gives the finish a pleasing hint of spice.
