Capichera Mantenghja 2016
Produced in a few precious bottles, this wine is the realization of an ambitious project. The choice of the autochthonous single grape variety and the selection of the best bunches are accompanied by a 24-month refinement before going into the bottle. Mantènghia is a purebred wine, intense and soft, which evolves over the years. Commercialized 4 years after the harvest to express itself at its best, Mantènghja in the Gallura dialect is a blessing.

Colour

Dark red with intense violet reflections.

Bouquet

Great intensity and concentratio with hints of blackcurrant, blackberry, blueberry, juniper berries, mint, coffee and chocolate.

Flavour

Full, warm, round and pulpy; the fruit is ripe, the persistence in the mouth continues with an enveloping finish, supported by a great fabric and a fine tannic texture.
