It took 4 wines this weekend to finally find something I like... This one is big and bright and reminds me of Southern rhone wines I liked. Olive, black fruits, some spice like clove and other Christmas spice and garrigue too. The palate is very well made a great acid drive, some width, some bright black fruit shining through and through, a bit of weight, some drying tannins in the rear, before a great drying finish with black fruits, a tiny salty and bitter touch. It could be a great côte du Rhône or even a cote du Roussillon / priorat. It's great! — 2 years ago

Very nice bottle of red at a reasonable price. I often drink Korem from the same vineyard but this is just as nice! — 2 years ago
Another bottle three weeks later and still outstanding. — 3 years ago
A new grape for me (bovale), from Sardinia. Heavy on the nose, distinct peppery note and ripe. Better when open 45 minutes. With Sly in London. — 2 years ago
Dry with dark red fruit aromas. Paired very well with a charcuterie board with salami, blue cheese, aged cheddar, parmesan, manchego, and comte, along with grapes, mustard, honey, and fig crackers. — 2 years ago

This wine is yellow in the glass, with hints of green showing. The nose displays massive citrus fruit, some apricot and melon aromas, and a big whiff of salinity. The palate has an interesting mix of lemon, peach, and orange peel. There is a savory slant to the flavors, too. The acidity is fresh, stopping just short of bracing. The suggested pairings with seafood and soft cheeses are right on target. It goes well with butter-sauteed spinach, too. — 7 days ago
