Sella & Mosca Terre Rare Carignano del Sulcis Riserva DOC

100% Carignano. Aromas of ripe raspberries accompanied by spicy notes and floral scents with a touch of vanilla. Rich and concentrated palate with firm, round tannins and flavors of cherry and red fruit. A natural match for roasted chicken, pasta with red sauce or grilled meats. 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. Founded over a century ago by Messrs. Sella and Mosca, two well-respected figures during the Risorgimento (Italy’s 19th-century unification movement). The property is now home to over 1,200 acres of vines. 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. 90+ Vinous 10/16 2012V
