History of Monica
The origins of monica in Sardinia, are generally considered in two different hypotheses.
The first, which also refers to the particular name of the wine, traces its introduction in Sardinia to XI century, by the Camaldolese monks.
A second theory on the other hand its introduction to the period of Spanish rule, taking as its basis the fact that in some areas of Sardinia, the wine is called Monica in Spain or Blackberry Grape.
