The Cannonau di Sardegna DOC "Sartiglia" from the Contini winery is a shining example of Sardinian oenological excellence, a red wine that encapsulates the richness and intensity of the Cannonau grape, one of the most representative of the island.

This wine stands out for its deep ruby red color, which heralds a rich and complex aromatic bouquet. On the nose, there are notes of ripe red fruits, such as cherries and plums, followed by spicy hints of black pepper and a slight vein of Mediterranean herbs that evoke the rugged and sunny terrain from which it originates.

On the palate, the "Sartiglia" presents itself with a robust structure, balanced by a lively acidity and well-integrated tannins that promise good longevity. The aging in barrique adds a pleasing complexity to this Cannonau, introducing nuances of vanilla and chocolate that blend perfectly with the ripe fruit.

Ideal as an accompaniment to intense Sardinian dishes, such as roasted suckling pig or Gallurese soup, Contini's "Sartiglia" also pairs beautifully with aged cheeses and red meat dishes. Its versatility also makes it suitable for pairing with international dishes rich in flavors and spices.

The wines from the Contini winery, a historic Sardinian winemaking family, are known for their fidelity to the terroir and for adopting viticultural practices that respect tradition and the environment—elements fully expressed in this excellent Cannonau di Sardegna DOC. Undoubtedly, the "Sartiglia" represents a sensory experience that celebrates the richness of Sardinian wines.
