The
2015 Sustantzia
is
made with 100% Monica di Sardegna grapes. The wine has an
intense ruby red color and aromas of dark red and juicy, ripened fruits. The
palate has a luscious medium body,
but a soft and smooth mouthfeel. The characteristics of Monica di Sardegna
vary, but all
wine
types have a ruby red color, intense and very dark. If drunk young, a clear wine-iness
could
emerge on the nose, making it a little edgy. The aromas can
vary
from one area
of
the island
to
another,
depending
on the microclimate and the soil. The taste is not overly alcoholic, it is not
very tannic, it is sapid and has a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Depending on the residual sugar, it can also be dry or amabile (little sweet).
This wine can
be paired with roasted meats, and strong and mature
cheeses. Open
up and allow it to breathe for one hour prior to drinking.
