The Tonaghe Cannonau di Sardegna DOC from the historic Contini winery is a prestigious expression of Sardinia’s most famous indigenous grape variety, the Cannonau. This red wine embodies the perfect fusion between the island’s ancient winemaking tradition and modern vinification techniques, making it particularly representative of the territory.

The appearance presents a lively ruby red color, with nuances that tend toward garnet with aging. The aroma is intensely aromatic, featuring notes of ripe red fruits such as cherries and plums, enriched by spicy accents of black pepper and a light touch of vanilla, due to the aging period in wood.

On the palate, the Tonaghe Cannonau di Sardegna DOC is robust and well-balanced. The entry is soft, with a rich tannic texture that blends seamlessly with the freshness of the acidity, typical of this grape variety. The flavors of red fruit skillfully mingle with notes of Mediterranean herbs and a pleasant spicy persistence, leading to a long and pleasantly warm finish.

Ideal for accompanying traditional Sardinian dishes such as roasted suckling pig or "pecora in cappotto," this wine also pairs well with aged cheeses or dishes based on red meat and game. It is recommended to serve at a temperature of 18-20°C to enhance all its qualities.

The Tonaghe Cannonau di Sardegna DOC is an example that celebrates the identity and passion of the Contini Winery for wine, offering an authentic sensory experience that narrates the richness and complexity of the Sardinian terroir.
