This Rosso Isola dei Nuraghi was the the Demuro family’s first wine. The 2019 vintage is a blend of 60 percent Carignano, 30 pecent Cannonau and 10 percent Muristellu. It was aged for nine months in a mixture of large Slavonian Oak casks, stainless steel tanks and cement vats. It has a dark ruby color and floral, blackberry, cherry, plum fruit with a citrus high note. Juicy blackberry, cherry black plum fruit flavors laced with dried spices are intense with bright, lively acidity and chewy tannins. Serve it with mixed charcuterie or grilled sausages.
