The red wine Cantine Santadi Cannonau di Sardegna Noras comes from the Italian island of Sardinia. You might say that the Cannonau grape resembles an authentic local grape of the island. However, in France we know this same grape as Grenache, and in Spain as Garnacha. Cannonau is widely planted and popular on Sardinia. The grape produces soft and fruity wines with Mediterranean spicy aromas.
The Cantine Santadi Cannonau di Sardegna Noras may not be the cheapest Cannonau available, but it is certainly one of the tastiest. Soft, intense, and refined. The wine is ruby red and intense in color. On the nose, aromas of blueberry and ripe blackberry, light roasted spices, tobacco, and chocolate. An exciting wine with beautiful complexity. On the palate, the fruit returns: warm and soft with subtle tannins that give the wine the right firmness. The taste is intense and the finish lingers pleasantly long. A wine you will warm up to.
The wine ages for 6 months in oak barrels and then for another 6 months in the bottle. Delicious with grilled lamb, but try putting a bavette on the grill and then brushing it with balsamic vinegar syrup—a divine combination….
The landscape and climate of Sardinia are excellent for cultivating various grape varieties. In fact, more than fifteen different grape varieties grow on this island alone. Only since the 1980s has quality made a major leap forward. Nowadays, truly exceptional class wines come from here. More quality instead of quantity. Consequently, the number of wines in Sardinia falling under the Italian DOC classification is steadily increasing. Cannonau is very important to Sardinian wine culture. By law, the DOC wine ‘Cannonau di Sardegna’ must be made from at least 90% Grenache. Due to its often higher alcohol content and slightly spicier character, this Cantine Santadi Cannonau di Sardegna Noras distinguishes itself from its Spanish and French counterparts.
