All that has been drunk over the holidays are not even remember, I'll write about the latter, ie today.
Cortovoy composition: 90% Cannonau, 5% Carignano and 5% Bovino Sardo. The vineyards are located in Serdiana (Cagliari), at an altitude of 220m above sea level, mostly clay soil, with a significant presence limestone.
Color deep, dark ruby, with brick edge. In the aroma is dominated by notes of black berries, wood tar pitch, it felt licorice, meat (bacon), pepper and smoky nuances. The body is dense, full of flavor, though a few sticks out is high, even "nervous" acidity. Tannins are noticeable, yet awkward. A couple of additional years of aging this wine will not hurt.
This label is included in the "traditional" line of wines Ardzhiolas, and refers to mid-range (in Italy about 12 euros). In spite of this, "Costera" - surely a decent wine, with a remarkable value for money, very rapprezentativnoe, speaking of Sardo Cannonau, and can serve as the perfect accompaniment to meat dishes, especially lamb, poultry, cheeses (Pecorino Sardo), including acute and spicy.
Rating: 91/100 RP, 90/100 WS, 2 / 3 GR.
