Tasting notes
The 2010 Turriga is one of the best wines to come from Sardinia this year. This compelling blend of Cannonau (85%) with Carignano, Bovale and Malvasia Nera is especially focused and intense in 2010. The wine shows extreme balance with seamless integration of black fruit, spice, crushed stone and leather. Yet you also get a pinch of wild rusticity that grounds this wine in a sense of place. Allow Turriga a few more years of cellar aging.

Owned by Franco and Giuseppe Argiolas, the estate wines bare the timeless marks of consulting enologist Giacomo Tachis who set the winemaking tone here many years ago. Argiolas continues to make some of Sardinia's best wines. eRobertParker.com.December, 2014
