Argiolas Iselis Nasco

The Nasco grape only grows in Sardinia. No more than 170 hectares have been planted. It is known for its taste of (dried) tropical fruit. Many winemakers make sweet dessert wine from it. Understandable. But the winemakers of Argiolas did not. They dry it.

It produces a fairly intense, deep yellow wine with thick tears in the glass. Dry indeed, but packed with tropical fruit, spiciness, mandarin peel and almond bitters. You won't forget this white Italian so quickly. But eat something with it. A grilled octopus, for example, or an Indian masala curry with chicken.
