Emidio Oggianu (EQ) Janaria Malvasia Isola dei Nuraghi IGT
Emidio Oggianu / Bosa, Planargia, Isola dei Nuraghi IGT, Sardinia, Italy
The Aromatic, Sun-Drenched Fairy-Legend White
Brilliant straw-gold in the glass. The nose is lifted and intensely aromatic, bursting with notes of ripe yellow peach, orange blossom, wild honeysuckle, dried herbs, candied lemon peel, and a crisp marine sea-spray. Medium-to-full-bodied on the palate with a lush, rounded mouthfeel, snappy acidity, and a long, dry, salty-almond finish.
⭐ (Sitting around 13% to 13.5% ABV and vinified cold in stainless steel, it is remarkably clean, energetic, and gentle on the head).
Pan-seared sea bass, grilled octopus, fregula with seafood, roasted pork tenderloin, or semi-aged pecorino cheese.
A fascinating contrast to Oggianu's Riserva. Janaria skips the oak and flor aging to give you Malvasia di Bosa in its pure, vibrant, un-oxidized state. It’s rich, deeply aromatic, and packed with stone fruit and orange blossom, but backed by a bone-dry, mouthwatering ocean salinity. Absolute proof that Bosa Malvasia makes incredible dry table wine.
