The wine "I Giganti" Rosso Nieddera Valle del Tirso IGT represents a true gem from Cantina Contini, a long-standing producer active in the magnificent region of Sardinia. This wine is a tribute to the native Nieddera variety, little known but of great enological interest, whose name evokes the greatness and strength of mythical heroes.
The color of "I Giganti" is a deep ruby with violet hues, typical of the concentrated Nieddera variety. On the nose, the bouquet is expressive and complex, with fruity notes of blackberries and ripe plums, enriched by a slight touch of vanilla and spice from skilful aging in wood.
On the palate, the wine offers a solid and well-balanced structure. The fresh acidity is well balanced by the softness of the tannins, which provide an immediate pleasantness while promising good aging potential. The olfactory sensations of ripe red fruit integrate with a slightly toasted and spicy finish, inviting a second sip.
Perfect for accompanying well-seasoned red meat dishes, aged cheeses, or typical Sardinian cuisine, "I Giganti" Rosso Nieddera is a wine that tells the story of its place of origin with every sip. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature of 16-18°C to appreciate all its nuances.
Let yourself be seduced by this jewel of Sardinian viticulture, which combines passion, tradition, and a distinctive territorial imprint. "I Giganti" Rosso is not just a wine but a true journey into the culture and flavors of a unique land like Sardinia.
