Argiolas, a winery of Sardinia, produces this sensational wine that praises the IGT denomination “Terre dei Nuraghi”. The vineyards are cultivated on soils full of clay and limestone. The climate is typically Mediterranean, with great thermal excursions and a good ventilation. The wine making considers a maceration of 10.12 days, followed by malolactic fermentation, managed in concrete barrels. The aging in barriques lasts for 10-12 months, followed by a further maturation in the bottle for 6 months. This wine is deep and elegant and represents all the attentions that Argiolas put in its products. Produced in steel and aged in concrete and in French oak, “Korem” is the perfect wine for a special dinner.
Features of “Korem”
This wine of Sardinia has an intense ruby red colour. Its scent expresses sensations of blueberry, cassis, violet, rose and chocolate. The taste recalls vanilla and gives a smooth approach to the glass. It is warm, harmonious and round, with a persistent final characterized by liquorice.
Recommended food pairings while tasting “KOREM” produced by Argiolas
Perfect for the whole meal, it is excellent with stewed boar, game, spicy red meat and the typical pecorino sardo. It should be served between 16-18°C.
