Vintage 2013 / the moment you drink a wine also counts, whether you are happy or sad, energetic or tired. I drank this wine after attending an inspiring congres and thought: as a matter of fact this wine has everything, cedar and spicy smell, quite balanced taste with good acidity, elegance and even some refinement. This #carignano #carignan makes me happy. #sardinia — 6 years ago
2006 Vintage, needs decanting-,throws a lot of sediment. Pairs well with food, without food is very hot. First nose was paint thinner with hints of licorice & herbs. Overall spicy, full berry fruits, & herbal. Color is still bold with very slight tints of orange. Tannins full but balanced. #sardegna #terrebrune #carignano #italianFWT #winepw#italianwine — 9 years ago
I’m digging this #sardinia #carignano rosato. Strawberry and raspberry aromas, copper-garnet color in the glass, just-right acidity, thicker tannins and a delicious chewy finish - a distinctly different Rosé. — 5 years ago
Vintage 2015 Pleasant, but high alcohol is a bit disturbing to me #sardinia #carignano — 6 years ago
Fantastic wine for the price. Classic #carignano raisiny dark fruit. Smoky at first opening - tones down as it breathes. Smooth tannins and medium body. — 9 years ago
Delicious 2011 #Carignano from #Sardegna almost as good as the company (w/ @JeanKReilly ) @BarVeloce #Chelsea. — 11 years ago
Vintage 2013 / made from #cannonau #carignano #bovale #malvasianegro #sangiovese 18 months on new barrels. Very impressive wine. Super rich. Cedar. Roundness. Way too young but with lots and lots of potential. #sardegna — 6 years ago
Vintage 2007 - autumn leaves, mocca, mushrooms, cedar, mature Lady from curious #carignano grape. Absolutely a wine with elegance. But nowhere middle of the road 😯 authentic beauty from #sardinia — 7 years ago
Interessante! Vinho com corpo que engana, ao achar que é medio! Acidez equilibrada! Corpo muda um pouco! Harmoniza mto bem com churrasco! Preparei um lombinho marinado ao molho Teriaki com gengibre, ficou mto bom! Ao final, após respirar mais a acidez predomina um pouco! Odor alcoolico e com nota de rosa! Cor bordo acobreado! Segunda opção de degustação: com queijo parmesão! Vinho toma uma caracteristica licorosa. Realça as notas de rosa e ameixas maduras. Bem alcoolico. Interesting, it like a medium body, but don't be fooled! Acidity balanced! The body changes with time! Harmonize with BBQ! Pork marinated with teriaki and ginger sauce. After breath the acidity change, domain, not in a bad way! Try with parmesan, you will feel it like a licquer, notes of roses and mature plum! This wine have a lot of alchool! #redwine #italianwine #italy #sardegna #buongiorno #lunch #wineexperience #calaseta #francodipiede #2011 #wine #instamoment #instafood #instawine #cheers #sommelier #tastegood #harmonização #degustação #plum #roses #parmesan #parmesao #churrasco #bbq #great #italianwine #italy #sardegna #sardinia #carignano #cheers #sommelier #sommlife #amazing #love #winelover #vino #winetasting — 9 years ago

My notes from the July tasting are much the same, maybe more wild cherry notes with the strawberry plus delicious acidity. Recently I read an article on wine expert’s inside secret to Rosé stating that the paler wine is generally better, but as with all rules related to wine, there are great exceptions like this. #carignano #wsjwineclub — 5 years ago
