Cantina di Calasetta
Piede Franco Carignano del Sulcis
Sardinia, Italy
Carignano del Sulcis DOC 2011, 13.5%.
Bottle tasted in October 2014. Limited quantities produced with Carignano gapes from pre-phylloxera vineyard located right next to the beach and the sea, on the South West coast of Sardinia Island.
Color is a bit brown, but nose is quite rich: sweet, vinous, light pastry, liquored cherries, and even a little green.
In the mouth rich of smooth tannins and taste of licorice, almost a "chewable" wine. I really liked it!

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

If the clusters are grown from vines that survived phylloxera and are completely un grafted you can bet you will be experiencing a unique treasure. Better yet, this is carignano from Sant Antioco... A little extension from the mainland of sardegna floating on the south west side of things. Unfiltered for her pleasure. Righteous bush vines creating A rustic, Mediterranean herb sort of grape juice.

Medium bodied, dried fruit, good acid. Great food wine.
