WINE DESCRIPTION
Punica Barrua is a rich and complex Sardinian red wine that is made from a blend of Bovale, Monica, and Carignano grapes. The aroma is intense and inviting, with notes of dark cherries, blueberries, and plums. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and well-structured, with layers of ripe tannins and a lengthy finish. Bright acidity and hints of sweet spices give the wine balance and harmony. This is a great choice for pairing with grilled meats, game, and savory dishes.
