Cardedu Bucce, Sardinia, Italy 2020

The glass reveals a luminous amber-gold hue, showcasing the depth of its skin-contact winemaking process. The wine’s clarity and color have hints of copper and bronze. This wine offers a multifaceted bouquet on the nose that blends fresh and dried aromas. Initial notes of citrus zest—orange peel, tangerine, and lemon rind—are accompanied by delicate floral hints of chamomile and orange blossom. As the wine opens, layers of dried apricot, ripe peach, and golden apple emerge, balanced by savory undertones of wild herbs, fennel, and a faint trace of salty sea breeze, reflecting its coastal Sardinian origins. Subtle earthy wet stone nuances and a honey touch further enhance the aromatic complexity.
