Description

Generous land, strong in iron minerals and clay. Delimited, as in the ancient tradition of the 'tanca', to produce and preserve the best fruit of the land, as was the case for 'farra', flour in the Sardinian language. In the name the promise: a proud wine from selected lands.

Perfume

Perfume

Original nose with a slightly alcoholic touch that gives aromas of sour cherry, anise, rosewater and myrtle, mottled with sweet nuances of pipe tobacco.
