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, among the oldest in the Mediterranean. In this Riserva version, it expresses its full depth: long maceration of organic grapes, then — after one year from fermentation — aging for 6-8 months in 500-liter oak tonneaux. A choice that adds complexity and spice without overshadowing the fruit and minerality of the grape variety.

In the glass, it presents with a brilliant amaranth red. On the nose, it is ample and enveloping: sour cherry, raisins, vanilla, and sweet spices imparted by the oak. In the mouth, it is soft and structured, with silky tannins and a long and complex persistence that speaks of the sun, granite, and wind of Sardinia.

Recommended for: Those who love structured and enveloping reds with wood aging that adds complexity without overshadowing 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.
