Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Deep Ruby red color with lovely nose of fruit, floral and spice, blend of Syrah, Cab Sauvignon, Cab Franc, Merlot and Carignan. On the palate cherry and blackberry flavors with licorice and earthy herb notes. Fine tannins, good balance with acidity, medium+ finish ending with fruit and an earthy character. — 14 days ago

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. — 2 months ago

Surprising, alive and well with good texture laced with acidity and a touch of complexity. — 9 months ago

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 — 2 months ago
