A powerful wine with aromas of fresh and spiced berries, made from Sardinia’s signature black grape. Decanter Bronze Medal

This wine is made from Cannonau, a black grape varietal thought to be the most ancient in the Mediterranean. It is super-charged with anti-oxidants and is a key element of the famous Sardinian diet.

The grapes for this wine were harvested by hand. They were then left to macerate for two weeks before fermentation in stainless tanks, at a controlled temperature. Next, it was matured ‘sur lie’ to develop texture and more complex flavours. Final aging took place in large oak barrels for 12 months, with bottling in the winter of 2019.

Located in the north of Sardinia, Siddùra is recognised as one of the highest-achieving Italian wineries. As well as planting Sardinia’s signature grapes, Cannonau and Vermentino, they also grow Cabernet Sauvignon and Sangiovese. Every year since 2013 they have won Decanter Gold, Silver, Bronze and Platinum medals – as well as countless awards in Germany, Belgium, Austria and other countries.

Tasting notes

Deep ruby colour with powerful aromas of wild berries and cherry, as well as spicy black pepper. Dry and fresh, with high acidity. Full-bodied, with smooth rounded tannins. A long and silky finish.
