PALA CENTOSERE 2021

CENTOSERE CANNONAU DI SARDEGNA DOC
Denominazione di Origine Controllata

Cannonau is the main red grape variety of Sardegna. Thanks to international university studies, its ancient island origin is certain, just as it belongs to the Grenache family, with which it shares part of its DNA. Cannonau is a son of Sardegna: proud, strong, and determined, but, at the same time, kind and elegant.

Vineyard Sites: ‘Acquasassa’ (Serdiana) and ‘Is Crabilis’ (Ussana)

Cellar Notes: The grapes are debunched and put whole into stainless steel tanks, at a controlled temperature of 21º for 40 days, with some punch downs and pump overs, frequency depends on the vintage. After alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation, the refinement continues in the tank where the wine rests for 3 months.
