Samas Isola dei Nuraghi IGT - Agricola Punica

The Samas Isola dei Nuraghi from the pen of Agricola Punica from Sardinia reveals a bright, light yellow color in the wine glass. This Agricola Punica white wine presents the nose with all kinds of pineapples, mangoes, passion fruit and lemons. As if that wasn't already impressive, the ageing in concrete adds further aromas such as lime.

This Italian wine impresses with its elegantly dry taste. It was bottled with exceptionally low residual sugar. This is a genuine quality wine that clearly stands out from simpler qualities and so, despite its dryness, this Italian naturally delights with the finest balance. Excellent taste does not necessarily need residual sugar. The texture of this balanced white wine is wonderfully crisp on the palate. On the finish, this youthful white wine from the wine-growing region of Sardinia impresses with its considerable length. There are again hints of lemon and mango. Mineral notes from the clay and sand-dominated soil are added in the finish.
