The 2007 Alghero Torbato Cuvee 161 Terre Bianche packs surprising punch for a Sardinian white. This richly textured, powerful wine exudes plenty of dense apricot and peach fruit intermingled with smoke, earthiness, honey and minerals. The wine reveals superb depth and balance, capped off with a long, persistent finish. Simply put, this is a gem from Sella e Mosca and a very distinctive expression of the indigenous Torbato. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2012.
