Rich white flowers. Some wet stone but more pear flavor. Bigger body than expected. Trace of honey suckle. — 9 days ago

Tenores Badde Nigolosu Rosso Romangia Cannonau 2005

Jay Kline

9.3

Poured into a decanter about an hour before service. The 2005 pours a ruby color with a transparent but slightly turbid core. Medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. Some signs of fine sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of bruised strawberry, crushed ripe raspberry, Balsamico, well oiled leather, cayenne pepper, dry underbrush, exotic spices, carnations, rich Mahogany that has been freshly varnished and stony earth. Yes, there is VA but it’s Italian. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, rich and savory. The alcohol is high but well integrated and doesn’t detract from the experience. This is a stunning showing from Sardegna and an absolute banger with malloreddus. Drink now and over the next few years. — 4 months ago

@Lyle Fass Looking at some of the more recent TN's, I can't help but think my bottle has held up better than others. Corks are an imperfect enclosure.
