Cannonau di Sardegna - The Cannonau varietal, which is related to the Grenache, has been grown on Sardinia for years. A very pleasant, full-bodied organic red wine with a wonderful structure, strong fruit, and the aromas of myrtle, liquorice, strawberry and undergrowth. On the palate it is vigorous and soft. Will drink well now and up to 7 years after the harvest. A tip for gourmets: in Sardinia, this is often paired with barbecued suckling pig.
We found this wine to be full bodied with a wonderful fruity flavour and you could sense the different aromas. It is quite a strong wine at 13.5% Vol but this did not come across as being too strong in the taste. We tasted the wine with fillet steak and the pairing was wonderful. Our verdict is that this is a truly very nice organic red wine.
The price per bottle is good value at just under £9 and the glass bottle is of course recyclable. Thanks to Organic Wine (Pure) for providing us with a sample of this product.
