Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Sangiovese. Dunkles Granat, satte Mitte. Das kompottigste Bouquet aller verkosteten Weine, viel rotes Pflaumenmus, Redcurrantnoten, dunkle Eichenrösttöne, Pralinen und Sandelholz. Im Gaumen dicht, zeigt erste Rundungen in den Tanninen und hat so einen gewissen, ersten Jugendcharme, im Finale Brombeerengelee und Heidelbeerenrelish, klingt aromatisch nach. Da sind Grösse und Spassfaktor wunderbar miteinander vermischt. Zurechtgemacht für ungeduldige Konsumenten. 18/20 trinken – 2027

The 2011 Solengo is 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Petit Verdot, 10% Syrah and 20% Merlot. It opens with deep, dark intensity and shows plush layers of sweet clove, ripe fruit and cherry liqueur. This is a modern, proud wine that should last ten years or more. Drink: 2017-2028.

An intense, fruit-filled red, showing a smoky cast to the cherry, licorice, herbal and spice flavors, with a fine, lingering aftertaste. Though bracing, this is also solidly tannic and needs time for all the elements to integrate. Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, Merlot and Petit Verdot. Best from 2017 through 2027. 1,250 cases made.
Producer
Argiano S.p.A. Società Agricola
Agricola Punica was founded in 2002, as a joint venture between Italy’s most elite winemakers and consultants. The list of all-star players includes, oenologist Sebastiano Rosa, Sardinian winery Cantina di Santadi, Tenuta San Guido under the leadership of Marchese Nicoló Incisa della Rocchetta, Santadi’s President Antonello Pilloni, and the iconic Tuscan consulting enologist, Giacomo Tachis. Fascinated by the idyllic connection of Sardina’s terroir and the Carignano grape, this extraordinary team decided to build Agricola Punica in the southwestern region of the island, caleed Sulcis Meridionale. The 150-hectare estate is divided among two vineyard sites, Barrua and Narcao. Though the land sits within the DOC of Carignano del Sulcis walls, the wines are labeled under the IGT of Isola dei Nuraghi. Today, the winery produces two stand-out wines based on the Carignano variety, the Barrua and the Montessu.
