Argiolas Perdera, 2005
The 2005 Perdera is a blend of 90% Monica and equal parts Carignano and Bovale Sardo. This wine is from a longtime producer in Sardinia. It is aged in French oak for six months prior to bottling, it exhibits dense pepper, cassis, and cherry characteristics intermixed with a loamy soil undertones. The color is deep ruby with purple highlights. On the nose there is abundant dark fruit and a noticable tartness. It is medium to full bodied with fleshy mouth filling acidity and smooth abundant tannins. This wine is both sophisticated and rustic at the same time. This will match well with any hearty fare and exotic spices. It is available for about $12 at Pete's in Bellevue. A very good value from Sardinia!
