ROBERT PARKER SCORE & NOTES
Robert Parker score 93
Robert Parker note The 2005 Isola dei Nuraghi Turriga is incredibly primary at this stage. This dark, textured Turriga reveals impressive weight in its dark fruit, but the bouquet remains rather reticent. Sweet herbal and floral notes resonate on the finish. Today the 2005 remains a fruit-driven Turriga in need of at least another few years in bottle. Turriga is one of the thoroughbreds of the south. Readers who want to learn about this fascinating red may want to look at my recently published vertical on www.erobertparker.com. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2025. Argiolas is a great starting point for readers who want to discover the breadth of Sardinian wine. From top to bottom this is an impressive line-up that showcases the unique voices of the island’s indigenous grapes. Even better, most of the wines remain exceptional values.
