Agricola Punica

Wunderschöne sardische Cuvée aus Vermentino und Chardonnay mit großer Frische und Dynamik. Florale Nuancen, Apfel, Birne und leichtes Minzaroma verwöhnen die Sinne. (superiore.de)

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

"Similar opulence on the nose as the 2013, but more complex, while the palate is fresher and less demanding, too. Still, not a shy wine by any stretch of imagination. Delivers more interest than the average Amarone, with which it easily vies for power, but without needing the drying process." Jancis Robinson

"Deep red-ruby. Red cherry, dark plum, spices and earth on the nose, complicated by grilled herbs and flint. Plush, sexy and deep, delivering layered flavors of strawberry, licorice, and dried flowers. This broad wine offers an exciting combination of size and fresh acidity. The very long, savory finish features youthfully dusty but ripe tannins." Ian d'Agata
