Teularju Ghirada Ocruarana Barbagia Rosso 2019

Natalie Ford — Interesting but not blown away

7/10

I can appreciate the quality here and it's clearly well made. Nice acidity, good fruit, decent finish. But for sixty-odd quid I was expecting to have my mind blown and it didn't quite get there for me. Would be an easy 9 at £40.

Clara Johansson — Something different from Sardinia

8/10

Don't know much about Sardinian wines but saw this on a menu on holiday and loved it so much I ordered a couple bottles when I got home. Really distinctive — smells amazing straight out of the bottle and the flavour has layers to it. Goes great with pasta and red meat.

Gianluca Ferro — Good but steep price

7/10

Got this as a birthday present and it's a solid red, well made with a nice long finish. But at £64.50 I'd probably not buy it again myself — there are Italian reds at half the price that I'd reach for more often. That said, it's definitely a cut above the usual stuff.
