  • Blend of Cannonau and Monica di Sardegna
  • This wine has aromas of cran-cherry, dusty earth and black plum
  • It’s dry with medium acidity and tannins and medium body with flavors of red fruits and earth
  • This is a juicy, fruity wine with the right balance of acid, tannins and body
  • Food pairings: ideal with red meats, game and mature cheeses.

 

Costera Argiolas 2016 - priced around $17.
