We offer two ways to locate information:
A blend of 90% Monica, 5% Carignano and 5% Bovale Sardo grown in the Perdera vineyard.
The intense ruby red color of this wine is typical of the Monica grape. Persistent aromas of ripened cherry, cassis and black pepper carry through to the palate and are followed by sweet hints of chocolate and firm tannins. Very vibrant, rich and rustic.
An excellent wine with spicy food, pasta with tomato or meat sauces, casseroles, and medium aged cheeses.
"The estate's 2006 Perdera Isola dei Nuraghi is an awesome effort at this level. It offers spicy black pepper and jammy dark fruit on a big, powerful frame, with intense tannins that will require at least a few months of bottle age to settle down. This blend of 90% Monica and 10% Carignano and Bovale Sardo is a great introduction to the reds of Sardinia. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2012. "
