Giuseppe Sedilesu
Sartiu Cannonau di Sardegna
Deep red. Musky cherry, fresh herbs, flint and licorice on the nose and palate. Rich, suave and large-scale but less sweet than past vintages, when the residual sugar showed thanks to the very ripe grapes used. The finish is long, vibrant and flinty. I like this wine's intensity of flavor and palate presence, and the broad, fine tannins that spread out to saturate the palate. Boasts 14.5% alcohol, but it’s so well balanced that you can hardly tell. (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, March 2018)
