This Carignano del Sulcis offers a broad sensory profile, characterised by a savoury entry on the palate and an enveloping texture. The tasting reveals well-integrated \u003cstrong\u003esweet tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e and a persistent finish with pleasant balsamic notes. On the nose, the aromatic profile develops through clear hints of \u003cstrong\u003eripe red fruit\u003c\/strong\u003e, geranium and black pepper, enriched by subtle mineral nuances.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wine originates from the south-western tip of Sardinia, in the heart of Sulcis. The environment is dominated by a \u003cstrong\u003eMediterranean climate\u003c\/strong\u003e, with hot summers tempered by the mistral wind and little rainfall during the winter months. The \u003cstrong\u003eCarignano\u003c\/strong\u003e vines grow on \u003cstrong\u003esandy soils\u003c\/strong\u003e and calcareous-clay soils, rich in stones and endowed with a valuable mineral heritage. These conditions allow the grapes to reach ideal phenolic ripeness, ensuring the wine has a solid structure that preserves aromatic clarity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production of Mesa Buio follows a non-invasive approach, favouring \u003cstrong\u003egravity flow\u003c\/strong\u003e to avoid mechanical stress on the grapes. Vinification begins with an eight-day skin maceration at controlled temperature, essential for extracting colour and phenolic components. After malolactic fermentation, which softens the structure, maturation continues for six months in \u003cstrong\u003ecement tanks\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is followed by a period of bottle ageing, an essential step to stabilise the aromas and ensure a harmonious drinking experience.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOriginating from Sulcis, in the south-west of Sardinia, this wine celebrates the meeting between the \u003cstrong\u003eCarignano tradition\u003c\/strong\u003e and the vision of Cantina Mesa. Founded in 2004 from the intuition of Gavino Sanna, the estate expresses the essence of the Mediterranean climate and particularly suited \u003cstrong\u003esandy soils\u003c\/strong\u003e. Under the guidance of oenologist Stefano Cova, the winery favours gentle, gravity-fed processes, avoiding the use of mechanical pumps to preserve the fruit's identity intact and offer a pure and faithful interpretation of this splendid \u003cstrong\u003eSardinian territory\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Cantina Mesa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45737668247723,"sku":"58742","price":16.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0652\/6789\/2395\/files\/mesa-carignano-del-sulcis-buio-2024_58742_1_f7b783a3-8267-4022-8c48-7e428ca7e186.webp?v=1777993848","url":"https:\/\/xtriwine.com\/en-uk\/products\/mesa-carignano-del-sulcis-buio-2024","provider":"Xtrawine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
