Sella & Mosca Terre Bianche Cuvee 161 Alghero Torbato DOC 2021 is a unique and elegant wine from Sardinia, Italy, made from the indigenous Torbato grape. This wine is a true expression of the Alghero region's terroir, with its coastal influence and calcareous soils.
The wine showcases a brilliant straw yellow color with enticing aromas of white flowers, tropical fruits, and a hint of sea breeze. On the palate, it is crisp and fresh, with a mineral-driven character that is both intriguing and refreshing. What sets it apart is its barrel aging, which adds a layer of complexity and richness to the wine, with notes of toasted oak and vanilla adding depth to the vibrant fruit flavors.
Sella & Mosca Terre Bianche Cuvee 161 Alghero Torbato DOC 2021 is carefully crafted using traditional winemaking techniques. After hand-harvesting the Torbato grapes from select vineyard sites, the juice is gently pressed and then fermented in oak barrels to impart complexity and richness to the wine. The wine is aged on its lees in barrels for a period of time, allowing it to develop additional nuances of flavor and texture. This barrel aging process adds depth and structure to the wine, enhancing its unique characteristics and creating a truly remarkable expression of Torbato.
