Cannonau di Sardegna Riserva DOP Organic

The Cannonau di Sardegna Riserva DOP BIO 2022 is the flagship wine of Fattorie Isola, an organic farm in Sardinia. Cannonau is the island's emblematic grape variety — cultivated for over three thousand years, it is among the oldest in the Mediterranean. In this Riserva version, it expresses its full depth: long maceration of organic grapes, then — one year after fermentation — aging for 6-8 months in 500-liter oak tonneaux. A choice that adds complexity and spiciness without covering the fruit and minerality of the grape.

In the glass, it presents with a brilliant amaranth red. The nose is broad and enveloping: morello cherry, raisin, vanilla, and sweet spices imparted by the oak. On the palate, it is soft and structured, with silky tannins and a long, complex finish that speaks of the sun, granite, and wind of Sardinia.

Recommended for: Those who love structured and enveloping red wines with wood aging that adds complexity without masking the fruit. Fattorie Isola's Cannonau Riserva is the ideal choice for an important dinner or a quality gift — perfect with grilled meat, roast lamb, Sardinian suckling pig, and aged cheeses like Pecorino Sardo. Decant for 45 minutes at 18-20°C.
