Tasting Notes
Rich, full, satisfying. A silky, layered progression which is enlivened by many-hued freshness, an underlying savoury streak and punchy yet rounded tannins, all thrusting to a long, enchanting finish of wild berries and herbs.

Mesa was thus founded as a declaration of love for Sardinia, as a marriage of beauty and goodness, as a celebration of the island's generosity and of its culture, expressed through one of its most noble treasures, wine. It represents the fulfilment of the dream of the Founder Gavino Sanna, Italy's most celebrated and awardwinning advertising

Regional Information
Mesa is situated in the area of Sant'Anna Arresi, on the slopes of a hill outlined by winds and surrounded by the Mediterranean Sea. It overlooks the plain of medaus (little country villages, typical of the Sulcis zone) and the inlet of the promontory of Porto Pino. Mesa's vineyards extend for more than 78 hectares (192 acres), of which 66 (163 acres) are estate-owned.
Vinification Details
Grapes are only destemmed, maceration during fermentation is extended to 18 - 20 days maintaining a constant temperature between 24 and 28 C. The wine is partly wood-aged in 2nd or 3rd vintage tonneaux or barriques for 12 months and partly steel-aged. Assemblage in concrete for a minimum of 6 month is followed by matu-ration in bottle for at least 6 months.
