Argiolas, Monica di Sardegna (Sardinia, Italy) 2009

Mar 7, 2012

By Michael Apstein

 Monica, a grape grown widely on Sardinia, but few other places, typically produces soft and fruity wines.  Argiolas includes Bovale and Carignano in the blend, which adds alluring herbal notes to their fruit-forward version.  The soft tannins encourage immediate consumption or allow you to chill it and serve it with burgers in the summer.
