Wine from Sardegna
Filter
Sardegna- The Italian island of Sardegna is the second largest in the Mediterranean Sea, following Sicily. The capital city is Sardinia. Sardina is home to the Vermentino variety and hosts the DOCG Vermentino di Gallura. Also produced in Sardegna is the Moscato di Tempio DOC, Malvasia di Bosa DOC, Cannonau (Grenache) DOC, Vernaccia di Oristano DOC, Nuragus di Cagliari DOC, Monica di Cagliari DOC, Carignano del Sulcis DOC, as well as the Nebbiolo, Torbato, and Nepente di Oliena varieties. The soils are rich in granite, limestone, sandstone, as well as mineral rich clays, free-draining sands and gravels. The Mediterranean Sea provides cooler temperatures in Sardinia viticulture. It is said the culture on the island is nowhere near as wine-oriented as mainland Italy. The island displays influences from neighboring Spain more so than Italy. The effects are reflected in their wines and grape varieties.

Hickinbotham Trueman Cabernet Sauvignon is made from 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon.
Trueman represents Cabernet in Clarendon at its best. Its purity, its elegant style, its supple, polished nature ... it’s a wine of its own.Distinct in character, this is not like Cabernet from the Vales below or the hills to the east. From its pretty, delicate florals and musk, through to its silky blackcurrant and kalamata juice and down to its dark carbon soul - Trueman is a modern Cabernet that encapsulates all the toil and antiquity of Clarendon. Echoing the unearthed prose of wine writer Ebenezer Ward from 1886 on theCabernet sown from this very land – Trueman is “an excelled wine, of very marked flavor and bouquet”.
Review:
Deep garnet/purple, the 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Hickinbotham Vineyard has a classic nose showing pronounced fresh blackcurrant and blackberry highlighted by cloves, menthol, pencil shavings and earth notes. Medium to full-bodied, taut and muscular, the palate has grainy tannins, nice freshness and a long finish.

This is a single vineyard, from the parcel "El Nogal" located in the town of Mambrilla de Castrejon grown at 850 meters above sea level. (2750 feet).
A hillside of tinto fino vines red in the village of Mambrilla, a short distance from the winery. Uninterrupted views of the Duero, the wind stirring the airy branches of the large walnut tree that guards the vineyard. A place with a special gift. Its sandy, stony soils, a feeling of harmony and a special microclimate: everything seems to enhance the talent of its surroundings.
We have been vinifying the evocative grapes of this plot for the past few years to produce an endlessly charming wine. Overwhelming, powerful and exquisite. With a vitalising force.
Review:
Deep aromas of ripe blackberries, cherries, fine toasted spices, hazelnuts, chocolate and a peppery twist. Compact yet pretty energetic, with a full body and powerful yet chalky tannins. Bold but caressing, with an intense, lengthy finish. Drinkable now, but better in two more years.
