Tenute Dettori
Tenores Badde Nigolosu Rosso Romangia Cannonau
Romangia, Sassari, Sardinia, Italy
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.
