Giuseppe Sedilesu's Cannonau Riserva "Carnevale" is an authentic expression of passion and winemaking art, coming from the heart of Barbagia, where tradition merges with innovation and this wine embodies a modern reinterpretation of the famous Cannonau grape variety. The mastery of production is manifested in "Carnevale," a Cannonau Riserva originating from Mamoiada, one of the most prestigious areas for the cultivation of this noble grape variety. The vineyards, located between 600 and 800 meters above sea level, enjoy a cool climate and considerable temperature ranges, giving the wine a unique complexity. The soils, derived from the disintegration of ancient granite rocks, are rich in minerals, helping to give the wine a perfect balance between freshness and a well-pronounced alcohol component, a typical characteristic of wines made from the Grenache grape, known in Sardinia as Cannonau. The careful care of the vines, which are bush-trained with low yields, less than 40 quintals per hectare, and the spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts during a 20-25 day maceration on the skins, contribute to create an extraordinary wine. After this crucial stage, the wine rests for 14-16 months in 225-liter barriques, after which it is bottled without filtering and aged for at least 6 months in the cellar. Cannonau "Carnevale" presents itself in the glass with an intense ruby red color, underlined by garnet reflections. The bouquet opens with fragrances of Mediterranean maquis herbs, soft spices, subtle hints of graphite, and notes of red fruit and jam. The sip is enveloping, warm and rich, the tannins, delicate and elegant, blend perfectly with a harmonious finish, balanced by a pleasant freshness.
Intense ruby red with garnet highlights. Ripe red fruit, spices, graphite. Full, dynamic, warm, delicate tannins, long-lived, balanced.
