Is Argiolas Vermentino di Sardegna 2023

Different direction from the Costamolino
Higher vineyard, older vines and more character for this vermentino that tells you that this variety has some far relation to riesling.
Great mineral and more verticality.
More potential to age
Quite long

Korem Isola dei Nuraghi IGT Red Blend 2020

Personally i found this the great surprise of the line up.
Mainly Bovale finished off with some cannonau and carignan.
9 months of new barrique which the wine digests incredibly well.
Nice fruit, but the floral that the Bovale gives to the wine truly fascinates me and keeps me interested during every sip. Spices too plus leather and tobacco.
Tannin that will get smoother, but is already enjoyable.
Long finish
Serious alternative for cabernet drinkers
It is not the Turriga, but honestly i did not remember its beauty. Very elegant

Merì Vermentino di Sardegna

Frisse geur. Smaakt anders dan hij ruikt. Kleine zoete ondertoon. Volle smaak van rijp fruit en een klein bittertje door ±3 maanden houtrijping — 2 months ago

Turriga Isola dei Nuraghi Red Blend 2019

After tasting the whole range from Argiolas you also realise how they got to this blend.
This is stunning, it absorbed 18 months of new oak easy.
Cannonau gives the freshness and the fruit with the carignan, the bovale donates the tannin and the floral shade and Malvasia Nera the aromatic.

Super velvety, fresh, complex and above all long.
It goes without saying this is only a baby.

Riserva Cannonau di Sardegna 2020

Nose of sandalwood. Lots of strawberries and cherries. Light tannins. This one is lighter- bodied than others I’ve had. Complimented nicely the Pasta Amatriciana. — 3 months ago
