Pala Bovale Sardo Isola dei Nuraghi Essentija 2015  - First Bottle

Reviews

95 Vinous -
Saturated violet-ruby. Knockout aromas of kirsch, blueberry, tobacco, leather, tar, graphite and lavender are expansive and strikingly precise. Dark and red berry and tobacco flavors are very varietally accurate and boast noteworthy freshness despite their outrageous size thanks to bright minerality and acid lift. Showcases a refined quality and a steely backbone that provides nice spine to the red fruit, coffee and cocoa notes. Finishes very long and seamless with a multilayered quality to repeating sweet boysenberry and blueberry notes. This is an absolute knockout Bovale Sardo.

Indeed it IS possible...if you’re on the First Bottle mailing list! Will go fast -- please don’t miss this stunner!

We bought every bottle we could find at this terrific price - normally $35. Founded in Sardinia in 1950, the Pala Estate has recently exploded onto the world stage with their century old, ungrafted, own-rooted vines planted in pure sand cuvee called Essentija, made from 100% Bovale. Bovale is the indigenous varietal nearly lost until recently, and it MUST be tasted to be believed. THE MIND REELS -- especially at our price. For a 95-pointer? Damn, this is a cool wine!

$27.95. Hard to believe, right? Free ground shipping on 6, of course -- while we have it!
