Well...my sniffers shot 🤧
Body is lighter side of medium with very little tannin structure.
Alcohol is medium +
Acid is medium.
In all defense, this was Coravin’d probably 3 months ago. Testing to see how it held up, but on account that my sinuses are failing me tonight we’ll have to come back to this at another point. I can remember this have great minerally notes with a nice dark fruit and black pepper core.

Very perfumed nose and an intense ruby color, and it did round-out once it opened up and was with food. However, the lack of balance persisted, with not enough body/tannin to support the alcohol.

Berry and shiny hint of meatiness with herbal and mineral undertones.

Ripe grapes from Sardinian sunshine, mineral and chalky notes. Compliments Italian meat/pasta dishes.

Light & neutral flavors… honestly too dry to be paired with pizza (my fault) but still enjoyable.

I'm a big fan of these Sardinian wines, this one paired nicely with a dish of pasta Arrabiatta. The spiciness of both the sauce and wine blended nicely. I'd definitely order this again

Really enjoyed this Italian wine from the small island of Sardegna. Nice pepper and fruit flavor
