Tasting Notes:

Deep ruby red in colour, Agricola Punica Montessu IGT has aromas of intense fruit and a linguering liquorish finish.

The palate has an elegant wine with a full mouth. 

Vinification:

The must is fermented with the skins at a temperature of between 25 and 30°C and periodically pumped over.

Malolactic fermentation creates roundness to the wine, which is then aged in used French oak barrels for approximately 12 months.

Vineyard Soils:

Medium texture calcareous, clay and sandy soil.

Climate:

Hot and dry in summer, temperate in winter.

Harvest:

In a normal year the grapes are harvested between the second half of September and the middle of October.
