Indolente Riserva Cannonau di Sardegna DOC 2021 - Tenuta Asinara x 6

Why the winemaker recommends Tenuta Asinara Indolente Rosso Riserva

What a sight, a surprise, it looks like a top Bordeaux. Well structured but not aggressive, dry and not fruity. NB: Cannonau is the local name for Grenache. This is a delicious sample of Cannonau with an exciting nose that in a blind tasting would make me guess cabernet franc. Compelling drinking.

Characteristics of the Indolente Rosso Cannonau di Asinara

This 100% Cannonau offers a compelling blend of ripe fruit and oak-derived complexity. Full-bodied palate with firm tannins, balanced acidity, black cherry, plum and leather. Long and warm finish with a touch of minerality.

Suggested pairings for this red wine Sardegna DOC

Delicious. Excellent with roasted sheep or pork. A mature and strong pecorino would not go amiss either. Heaven.

Uncork and serve the Cannonau at a temperature of 18-20°C in the Balloon glass.
