Sella & Mosca Torbato Brut 2020

Alghero Torbato Spumante DOC, Sardegna, Italy 

Sella & Mosca Torbato Brut is a beautiful dry sparkling wine of 100% Torbato from Sardinia. A jewel in the Mediterranean, Sardinia is a rustic and enchantingly beautiful island with extreme geography and vinous diversity to tempt travelers and wine enthusiasts alike. Mr. Sella and Mr. Mosca fell in love with this land over a century ago and established Sella & Mosca, one of Italy's most renowned wine estates. As Sardinia's foremost wine producer, Sella & Mosca’s premium wines are made exclusively from estate-grown grapes. In addition to native varieties such as Vermentino, Torbato and Cannonau, the winery has successfully pioneered the introduction of international grape varieties, notably Cabernet Sauvignon. 

A rare and precious varietal, rediscovered and rehabilitated by Sella & Mosca over years and years, Torbato grows best in calcareous soil originating from ancient marine sedimentation. The straw yellow color is bright and shining, while the aromas range vivaciously from acacia blossoms and pink grapefruit to autolytic and bready notes. A trail of iodine reverberates within a savory, fresh and balsamic palate with a creamy yet dry and vertical start. The aromatic nuances continue on, drawn by the acidity into an interminable finish. 

This dry, refreshing sparkling wine is perfect with seafood dishes, grilled chicken, and Mediterranean fare, or to celebrate a special occasion!
