#63 in Top 100 Wines of Italy, 2024. A rich and layered red with so much berry, cedar, chocolate and bark character. It’s medium- to full-bodied with a tight center palate and a flavorful finish. Starts out intense and then finishes very fine and focused. A blend of 85% cannonau, 10% carignano and 5% bovale. Better in three or four years, but already gorgeous.

Varietal Italian Red Blend

Italian Red Blends stand as a testament to the country’s rich winemaking diversity and heritage. Comprising a harmonious mix of indigenous and international grape varieties, these wines encapsulate the unique character of Italy’s diverse wine regions. Blends like Super Tuscans, combining Sangiovese with Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, showcase a fusion of tradition and innovation. The Nebbiolo-based blends from Piedmont, such as Barbaresco and Barolo, exemplify elegance and longevity. Each region contributes distinct flavors, from the bold red fruits of the south to the structured tannins of the north. The artistry lies in winemakers’ hands, skillfully crafting blends that balance acidity, tannins, and fruit expression. Italian Red Blends offer a kaleidoscope of aromas, flavors, and textures, reflecting the country’s varied terroirs. Whether exploring a classic Chianti blend or a contemporary interpretation, these wines invite enthusiasts on a captivating journey through Italy’s winemaking mosaic.

Country Italy

There are few countries in the world with a viticultural history as long or as illustrious as that claimed by Italy. Grapes were first being grown and cultivated on Italian soil several thousand years ago by the Greeks and the Pheonicians, who named Italy 'Oenotria' – the land of wines – so impressed were they with the climate and the suitability of the soil for wine production. Of course, it was the rise of the Roman Empire which had the most lasting influence on wine production in Italy, and their influence can still be felt today, as much of the riches of the empire came about through their enthusiasm for producing wines and exporting it to neighbouring countries. Since those times, a vast amount of Italian land has remained primarily for vine cultivation, and thousands of wineries can be found throughout the entire length and breadth of this beautiful country, drenched in Mediterranean sunshine and benefiting from the excellent fertile soils found there. Italy remains very much a 'land of wines', and one could not imagine this country, its landscape and culture, without it.

Wine Advocate

The accompanying technical sheet that came with this bottle describes the Argiolas 2020 Turriga as a blend of “ancient grapes from Sardegna” from various estate vineyards, although it does not identify the varieties specifically. Past vintages have typically led with Cannonau, the flagship grape of Sardinia, supported by smaller parts Carignano, Bovale and Malvasia Nera. The wine shows a deep, dark appearance with rich layers of dried black fruit, cola, spice and black licorice. That caramelized, cola-like element is what most distinguishes this vintage. Turriga comes from estate vineyards in southern Sardinia, where warm Mediterranean conditions and mixed limestone and clay soils favor fully ripened fruit and dense concentration. The wine ages two years in barrique followed by 18 months in bottle before release. Production totals 44,000 bottles, and this vintage was released to the market in July 2024.

Wine Spectator

A lovely range of plum sauce and blackberry paste flavors is accented by warm earth, herbed olive and graphite notes in this focused red. Light, dusty tannins give a supple feel to the structure, abd balsamico acidity animates the profile through the long, lightly chewy finish.

Winery Notes

Turriga is a powerful red wine that requires time in bottle to show its full complexity. Upon release, Turriga is densely packed with powerful tannins and tightly wound fruit, thus decanting is recommended. With time in bottle, Turriga reveals multiple layers of Mediterranean herbs, roasted coffee, spices, and licorice with a generous core of black and red fruit.
