Wine in Cannonau di Sardegna

100% Cannonau. An elegant wine with black and red berry aromas accented by herbal and earthy notes. Lively acidity is balanced by ripe tannins. A jewel in the Mediterranean, Sardinia is a rustic and enchantingly beautiful island with extreme geography and vinous diversity to tempt travelers and wine enthusiasts alike. Founded over a century ago by Messrs. Sella and Mosca, two well-respected figures during the Risorgimento (Italy’s 19th-century unification movement). The property is now home to over 1,200 acres of vines. As Sardinia’s foremost wine producer, Sella & Mosca’s premium wines are made exclusively from estate-grown grapes. In addition to native varieties such as Vermentino, Torbato and Cannonau, the winery has successfully pioneered the introduction of international grape varieties, notably Cabernet Sauvignon. 90pts Wine Enthusiast 12/19 2015V

Sardinia, Italy - Remarkably fresh yet still complex, this wine displays notes of dark chocolate and tobacco beneath an explosion of berries. This well-balanced wine pairs well with a wide range of foods, from starters to steak (Elegant, Berry, Chocolate, Tobacco, Full-bodied)

Sardinia, Italy- A classic wine produced from the Cannonau grape, thought to be a local clone of Grenache, this offers wonderful aromas and flavors of ripe red and black berries. With a pleasant mouthfeel, it's very well-balanced with a smooth finish (Intense, Red Berry, Blackberry, Medium-bodied)

Marked notes of small wood berries mix with hints of dark chocolate and tobacco. Balanced acidity leads to silky tannins.

Thanks to the use of delicate macerations and of non-toasted barrels, the elegance of the varietal aromas remains intact. Cherry, raspberry, blackberry, rose and a delicate spicy note of white pepper. The freshness harmonizes with the warm notes and the exceptional soft tannins.
