Discover the exceptional Carignano del Sulcis Superiore, a Sardinian red wine of remarkable quality. Carefully selected grapes undergo controlled temperature fermentation in stainless steel tanks, allowing the rich polyphenols in the grape skins to shine. After an early malolactic fermentation, this wine matures for a maximum of 16-18 months in barriques, gaining complexity, style, and impressive longevity.
Carignano del Sulcis Superiore presents itself in an intense ruby-red color with garnet reflections. Its bouquet enchants with a harmonious blend of plums, blueberries, sweet spices, laurel, juniper, tobacco, and chocolate. On the palate, it unfolds its full splendor - rich, warm, velvety, fruity, and spicy, accompanied by elegant tannins.
This remarkable wine pairs perfectly with dishes such as roasts, grilled meats, herb-seasoned game, and semi to fully-aged cheeses. Serve it in generous bowls with a medium-sized opening at a pleasant temperature of 18°C. With a cellar potential of approximately 8 years, Carignano del Sulcis Superiore is also an excellent choice for wine enthusiasts who take pleasure in collecting and aging their treasures over extended periods."
