This hot vintage has served the 2017 Monica di Sardegna I Fiori well. Those sharp or brambly aromas I remember tasting in the cooler years have been erased in this hot-climate expression. You get some jammy fruit (blackberry and cherry mostly) that adds to the soft simplicity of the mouthfeel. This easy red wine sees no oak and some 30,000 bottles were produced. It would be great with a pepperoni pizza.
