The wine region of Cannonau di Sardegna

Sardinian DOC covering the whole island (since 1972), kingdom of Cannonau (local Grenache, ~7,500 ha). Warm, sun-drenched reds with signature ripe cherry, candied plum, garrigue, wild myrtle, Mediterranean herbs and a sweet spice touch, round tannins and a generous, alcoholic palate — the soul of Sardinia. Riserva oak-aged versions, denser Superiore, sweet fortified Liquoroso. Spanish origin (Crown of Aragon).


The wine region of Sardinia

Italian Mediterranean wine island with 250+ varieties, strong native identity. Signature Cannonau (Grenache) in red: warm and deep with signature ripe cherry, garrigue, myrtle, spice and a balsamic touch, round tannins and a sun-drenched palate. Vermentino di Gallura DOCG star white (80% of Italian Vermentino): fresh and saline (citrus, pear, almond, sea iodine). Also dense Carignan, supple Monica, lively Nuragus, rare oxidative Vernaccia di Oristano.

The word of the wine: Confit

Said of red wines that offer a very ripe nose of red and black fruits reminiscent of jam. On the palate, these aromas are dominant, the wine is very fleshy and round, and leaves an impression of sweetness on the finish that weighs it down.
