Cantine Mesa: authentic character Sardinian wines

The Cantine Mesa collection gathers a selection of wines that tell the story of Sardinia with style, identity, and great personality. From the intense interpretations of Carignano del Sulcis and Cannonau di Sardegna to the more original labels like Brama Syrah and Malombra, this collection enhances a modern oenological profile, deeply connected to the territory.

Cantine Mesa was born in Sulcis, one of the most interesting areas of the island for the production of structured, spicy, and complex reds. Here, the work in the vineyard and winery aims to enhance the expressiveness of the grapes, maintaining a balance between concentration, elegance, and drinkability. The result is a range of wines that stand out for their aromatic intensity, tasting depth, and strong coherence with their Sardinian origin.

Within the collection, you will find representative labels such as BUIO Rosso Carignano del Sulcis DOC, Gavino 2014 Carignano del Sulcis Riserva MESA, Buio Buio IGT Isola dei Nuraghi riserva, and Buio Buio IGT Isola dei Nuraghi riserva 2014 Mesa.

The presence of special formats like BUIO Rosso Carignano del Sulcis DOC from 9 Liters, Salmanazar makes this selection interesting even for those looking for scenic bottles to share on important occasions. It is a collection that combines island tradition, grape variety personality, and stylistic care, with a clear focus on quality.
