Rada Alghero
Riviera Cannonau Di Sarsegna
Sardinia, Italy
Pretty slick Cannonau. Focused, elegant, plenty of purity without losing its soulful charm. High-toned, ripe wild strawberries, crushed cherry, confiture, white pepper, sweet medicinal herbs, rocks and flowers. Has a great core of fruit with plenty of umami to back it all up. Bright acid with charmingly textured, gritty tannin.

Grenache from Sardinia, some richness, ripe and fruity, tastes like bowl of cherries

Great value for the price point! Plus my mom told me that sardegnans live forever because of all the cannonau they drink so figured might as well explore it. Great Kermit import.

Cannonau = Grenache. Fairly bright, nice minerality. Grown in limestone. Light body with decent extraction / depth of fruit - yet remains lean. Red berries, earth. citrus.. really comes together after an hour of air. I dig it hard for $23.

This is fun. Sweet cherry. Love the color. Hate the weather. This wine is growing on me plus I get to watch The Martian and the Pens just won
