Territory and wine style
The IGT Isola dei Nuraghi designation enhances wines that freely and contemporarily interpret the oenological heritage of Sardinia. In this context, Mantènghja 2015 stands out for its connection to the territory and for the choice of Carignano, a grape variety well-suited for deep, generous red wines rich in nuances. The style is warm and material, but supported by balance and an aromatic precision that makes the sip harmonious and complex.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents a deep ruby red, crossed by intense violet reflections. The bouquet is wide and concentrated, with hints of currant, blackberry, and blueberry, enriched by notes of juniper berries, mint, coffee, and chocolate. On the palate, it is full, warm, round, and juicy, with ripe fruit that accompanies the entire tasting. The structure is significant but well-supported, the tannin is fine and integrated, while the enveloping finish leaves a long and satisfying persistence.
Recommended pairings
Mantènghja 2015 pairs naturally with flavorful red meats, roasts, braises, and game. It is also excellent with preparations from Sardinian cuisine, such as stewed sheep, oven-baked lamb, or dishes rich in spices and rosemary. Its intensity makes it suitable for aged cheeses and structured dishes that can engage with the roundness and depth of the wine without overshadowing it.
Serving temperature
To best appreciate Mantènghja 2015, the ideal temperature is between 16 and 18 °C. If the bottle is opened in advance, it can benefit from a brief aeration to enhance the expression of the bouquet and the relaxation of the sip, especially in the early years of bottle aging.
