Samas Isola dei Nuraghi IGT

Vermentino meets Chardonnay — two grape varieties blended together shortly before the end of the ripening process. The result is a Sardinian white wine with a distinct character: fresh, mineral, and with a Mediterranean flair.

Agricola Punica is a joint project between the renowned Tuscan winery Sassicaia (Tenuta San Guido) and local Sardinian winemakers. The soils of Isola dei Nuraghi — named after Sardinia's prehistoric stone structures — impart a salty minerality to the wine, typical of the island.

In the glass, aromas of citrus peel, white peach, and a hint of pineapple emerge. On the palate, it is smooth, with lively freshness and a delicate minerality on the finish. No overpowering oak notes, but rather a straightforward, clean style.
