Girò di Cagliari DOC
Come si dice? Tap the speaker next to a name to hear it in Italian. AI voice.
No strip issued. I'm still hunting a bottle.
Girò is a red grape of probable Spanish origin that survives on a few dozen hectares around Cagliari. The DOC is chiefly for sweet and fortified reds: garnet, with dried cherry, prune, cocoa and a warm, slightly tannic finish somewhere between a light Recioto and a young tawny. Dry versions exist and taste like a soft, cherry scented Grenache. Production is minute and mostly drunk in Sardinia with cheese and dry pastries.

I'm still looking for a bottle of this.
If you make Girò di Cagliari, import it, or know who does, the form takes two minutes and I reply to every one.
