Agricola Punica

Konzentrierte Cuvée aus Carignano, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot und Syrah. Dunkle Früchte im Duft, voll und reich am Gaumen mit schöner Würze, abgerundetem Tannin und guter Länge. (superiore.de)

"This is a dense and rich red with smoked wood, dried bark, tea and ripe fruit. Very flavoful. Full body. intense. Velvety tannins." James Suckling

"A stylish, fresh red, with spiced black raspberry and black currant fruit and accents of green olive, dried thyme and sweet smoke, finely meshed with long, supple tannins. Medium- to full-bodied, this shows good focus and length." Wine Spectator

"This is the estate's second wine, which is a tad less formal than the top-shelf Barrua. The 2015 Montessu represents a hearty blend of 60% Carignano with equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Syrah. It ages in oak for up to one year. The wine reveals an inky blackish appearance with spots of ruby brilliance that shine from within. Cabernet-like aromas of dark fruit, spice, grilled herb and black olive are immediate and recognizable. The wine is layered and soft in terms of texture, and it grips the palate with firm intensity." Robert Parker

Großer, schöner und entwicklungsfähiger Wein, ausladend und einhüllend in der Nase, mit Pflanzen- und Vanillenoten im Geschmack, lang und mit feiner Textur. Ein Wein, der den großen internationalen Gewächsen in nichts nachsteht, und der dennoch seine sardische Eigenständigkeit bewahrt. (superiore.de)

"Lovely precision to this red with berries, nutmeg and hints of stones. Subtle dried meat, too. Medium body, pretty texture and a refined finish. Always excellent." James Suckling

"Fully saturated deep ruby. Leafy nuances and notes of sassafras dominate the deep but youthfully reticent dark red fruit on the nose. Then smooth and dense, with forward flavors of red cherry, dark plum, cassis, and aromatic herbs. Finishes very long and spicy, with peppery tannins and building complexity. For maximum enjoyment, put this away in the cellar and open it in three to four years only." Ian d'Agata

"Created by the same folks behind Tuscany's legendary Sassicaia, this is an all-Sardinian blend of 85% Carignano, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Merlot. The 2013 Barrua is a beautifully balanced and seamless expression with dark fruit aromas that flow effortlessly from the bouquet. Those tones of blackberry, prune and dried fig segue to spice, tar, licorice and black olive. This vintage really works in terms of the intensity and the precision of the bouquet. The tannins are integrated, and the wine is layered and long lasting. Some 125,000 bottles were produced." Robert Parker
