Tasting Notes

This Cannonau di Sardegna DOC captures the distinctive personality of Sardinia terroir. Its 15% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Cannonau 100%, this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards in the vineyard Is Crabilis, at an altitude of 150/180 m. above sea level, on limestone and clay soils and vines of 35 years of age old. Vinification: maceration on the skins for 10 days. The wine is aged 10 months in French oak barrels, then at least 3 months in steel. A wine reflecting the island's ancient indigenous grape heritage.
