Cantine Di Dolianova
Dolia Monica di Sardegna
Sardinia, Italy
100% Monica
Med+ acidity, trim sandy soil body, Plum, craberry skin, tea tannin, slight bitter, graphite/pencil, berry in the finish.
Enjoyed without decant, deserves 1-1.5 hr. decant.
I love Monica, a varietal I would like to see more of. Bet it would grow wonderfully in Baja (Prove me wrong).

Delicious, obscure #monica from #sardinia. Expect to keep this one in the wine fridge for a day from uncorking before the wine truly expresses itself. After that there’s a lovely wild cherry, violet, faint pepper and distant black cardamom smokiness in the heady nose. Juicy acidity, soft tannins on the palate make this nicely food friendly wine. Overall the experience is bargain Burgundian - fantastic wine for ~$13 at Total Wine.

OK. Rubber cork leaks badly with Coravin so never again for us.
