Description
Cannonau di Sardegna is one of Italy’s most fascinating and characterful red wines; rich, smooth and full of Mediterranean warmth. Made primarily from the Cannonau grape (known elsewhere as Grenache or Garnacha), it thrives in Sardinia’s sun-drenched vineyards and rugged coastal hills, producing wines with ripe red fruit, spice and a distinctive earthy elegance.
Cannonau is deeply woven into Sardinian culture and history. The grape has been grown here for centuries and is often credited as one of the secrets behind the island’s reputation for longevity, enjoyed as part of the traditional Mediterranean diet.
The Cantina di Santadi Winery is located in the Sulcis area, in South-western Sardinia, just a few miles as the crow flies from the dazzling beaches and white sand dunes of Porto Pino.
Intense ruby red colour with complex, blueberry and ripe-blackberry aromas and spices tending to sweet, tobacco and chocolate. Fleshy and rich with soft plumy fruit.
Whether you’re discovering Sardinian wine for the first time or already a fan of bold yet refined Mediterranean reds, Cannonau di Sardegna delivers depth, balance and a taste of island life in every glass.
