Marmora, Cannonau di Sardegna DOC 2016 (13.5%)
The sister wine of the Vermentino above, a fascinating example of what can be done with Southern Rhône’s Grenache grape (Cannonau) in Sardinia. This is the leading red grape varietal grown in Sardinia. Unlike its French counterpart, with its dense, inky flavours, this version is light on its feet with a lovely mid taste of hot tar and pine notes. This would be ideal with white meats rather than robust dishes.
