Cantina Santadi
Terre Brune Carignano del Sulcis Superiore Carignane
Sulcis, Cagliari, Sardinia, Italy
Our next bottle during our delicious dinner at Scampi is a 2004 Carignane from Santadi in Sardinia, which is utterly appropriate given we are in a Southern Italian restaurant. Santadi is a cooperative that has many of the best vineyard sites in Sardinia and takes meticulous care to make the best wines from those sites. Produttori del Barbaresco in Piedmont and CVNE in Rioja are two such peers in this regard, such is my understanding, which may be limited.
The Carignane del Sulcis Superiore Terre Brune from 2004 was a wonder with the cuisine. The wine is at once powerful with plums and cherries, and graceful with a lovely silky texture. This is reference point Sardinian quality. I'd like to try more.
