    The Chardonnay in this blend with Vermentino creates a smooth, unctuous texture. Acidity and richness combine to bring out citrus and apricot flavors. The end delivers a zesty, mineral tang. Drink now.

  • 201588 pts

    This blend of Niellucciu, Sciaccerellu and Syrah is both rich and stalky. That gives acidity, black currant fruit and a youthful texture. It's balanced with rich tannins which will allow it to age further. Drink from late 2018.

  • 201388 pts

    A blend of local grapes with Syrah, this fruity wine enfolds a core of tannins. Stalky, smoky flavors balance with a red plum-skin texture and crisp acidity. It is young, the fruit still developing, so drink from 2017.
