Tasting Notes: Samas The Punica Samas is a crisp, fresh Vermentino from Sardinia. It is named after Punic, the God of the Sun. Vermentino and Chardonnay grapes grown in sandy soil are hand harvested at dawn to maintain characteristic varietal notes and freshness. This white wine has vibrant apple flavors and aromas with an underlying salinity and a hint of tropical fruit.
Estate History: Punica is a winery in Sardegna founded by Tenuta San Guido, makers of the Super Tuscan Sassicaia and Sardinian winery Santadi’s President Antonello Pilloni. Working alongside the legendary Tuscan winemaker, Giacomo Tachis, who believed that Sardinia could produce a fantastic wine from grapes grown in Sulcis, the estate produces some of the finest wines from the Island.
