Really good and quite interesting. First wine I've had from Sardinia. Full bodied and very flavorful. The dark fruit and berry flavors dominate, but there is also spices, herb, mineral, and licorice. Still some tannins and good acidity. Excellent QPR.

Bra vin till lammracks! Bra nyans och kryddighet med ton av svartvinbär. Inte så fylligt tyvärr som det beskrivs som. Möjligt att det bör lagras 2 år till 2023..

Strong tannins, sardinian wine Packed full of ripe, sweet fruit - Plums and cherry. A bit to much alcohol and a little bit to little acidity Very much wine for the money!!

Celle-ci nous a semblé très différente de la précédente... (??) Meilleur de 2e jour. Nez finement parfumé, prune, rafle, boisé fin, cendres de bois, épices douces rappelant la muscade et le cumin vert, complexe... En bouche la dimension végétale prend beaucoup de place cette fois-ci, tro peut-être, l’acidité est rafraîchissante à vive, amertume moyenne-forte, belle prise minérale, sensation de Pierre volcanique, tanins fins et charnus+, belle longueur qui s’étire en mineralité et végétal Conclusion : à oublier en cave plusieurs années... 89-91+?

Warm, smooth tannins with blackcurrant and a little spice on the nose. Easy drinking but with some interesting aromas and good mouth feel. My friends were seriously enthusiastic to the point of getting me to message them details so the could buy some. Great QPR - have bought a case although not sure it will develop significantly with age given it is so mellow now

Spiced plums on the nose, smells very ripe. Big wine, sweet tasting, more than a hint of port about this but finishes dry. You'll probably only need a small glass of this.

Ein wirklich schöner Wein mit Spannung zwischen südlicher Fülle und animierender Frische. Sehr trocken ausgebaut. Blind würde ich ihn für einen französischen Wein halten. Ein Mix aus Languedoc und Bordeaux. Modern aber nicht abgehoben. Würzig, beerig, ätherisch und lang. jetzt bis 2023.

Dark colour. A nose of blackberries, cherries, a hint of dark florals and some vanillin oak. In the mouth, stewed plums - a touch pruney - and other dark fruit and kirsch. Packed full of ripe, rich, sweet-seeming fruit. Lacking a little refreshing acidity. Some alcohol burn (14.5% ABV) and espresso cherry bitterness on the finish. Drink by around 2025 I’d think.

Opened for 3h w/o decanting. Ripe blackberry, plum, sweet licorice, sun baked bush. Sweet fruit attack followed by fresh acidity and silky tannin with a fruit driven finish with notes of pepper and vanilla. This is very easy drinking and it tastes more like a New World wine.

Besoin de temps. Bouche très serrée et très fine à la fois. Belle longueur. Le nez en envoûtant.
Superbe.
A revoir jusqu’en 2030.
