The 2008 Alghero Thilion (Torbato, Sauvignon) is an impeccable, richly-textured wine. Sauvignon seems to dominate, especially in the bouquet. Seamless and opulent, but never heavy, the Thilion reveals a gorgeous core of intense yellow fruits, spices, mint and minerals that come together with unusual grace. Floral notes inform the delicate finish. This is another beautiful white from Sella e Mosca. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2015. Sella e Mosca is one of the oldest and best-known wineries in Sardinia. Curiously, many of the estate’s wines rely on international grapes, something that sets Sella e Mosca apart from the vast majority of wineries on the island.
