Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Ruby red in color with garnet reflections. On the nose, floral, herbaceous and tar notes are accented with leather and spice. Full-bodied, dry and balanced, with supple tannins.
Serve at room temperature and open bottle a couple of hours before pouring or decant ahead of time. Splendid with hearty red meat dishes, game and mature cheeses.
Blend: 50% Cannonau, 50% Cabernet Sauvignon

James Suckling
This shows smoky, wet-earth, mahogany and dark-chocolate character that is subtle and complex. It’s medium-bodied with medium, round tannins and a fresh, lightly austere finish.
-
Wine Spectator
A sleek, well-knit red, with subtle hints of mocha, bay leaf and spice box accenting ripe black and red currant fruit flavors. Medium-bodied and fresh, with a lightly chewy, mineral-laced finish.

A jewel in the Mediterranean, Sardinia is a rustic and enchantingly beautiful island with extreme geography and vinous diversity to tempt travelers and wine enthusiasts alike. Mr. Sella and Mr. Mosca fell in love with this land over a century ago and established Sella & Mosca, one of Italy's most renowned wine estates.
As Sardinia's foremost wine producer, Sella & Mosca’s premium wines are made exclusively from estate-grown grapes. In addition to native varieties such as Vermentino, Torbato and Cannonau, the winery has successfully pioneered the introduction of international grape varieties, notably Cabernet Sauvignon.
