Il Nuraghe ‘97

Max Jacobson

This cork-encased bottle is both a curiosity and a handsome piece of work, something you'll probably want to keep long after the wine has been consumed. This producer makes both whites and reds from native Sardinian grapes and the character is unlike most other European wines. You'll taste hints of orange and wild fruit, as well as pronounced tannins and an earthy finish. The color is a lovely light ruby and the wine makes a nice match for pungent Italian cheeses.

Available exclusively at Spirits Plus, $14.95
