Agricola Punica has been producing unique wines from Sardinia since 2002. Founded by the legendary Tuscan winemaker, Giacomo Tachis, who saw the potential for grapes grown in the Sulcis region. The winery is made up of two estates, the Barrua and Narcao, both located in the south-western part of Sardinia.

Montessu is an intensely fruity, elegant, and full-bodied wine that combines traditional Sardinian Carignano with Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot from the Lower Sulcis. The grapes are grown on spurred cordon vines rooted in calcareous, clay-rich, and sandy soils. The vineyards are exceptionally hot and dry in the summer and temperate through the winter.
