Pedrastella, Isola dei Nuraghi I.G.T.

The Pedrastella Carignano is a powerful yet refined red wine from southern Sardinia. The indigenous Carignano grape variety – also known internationally as Graciano – develops its distinctive character on the clay, sand, and limestone soils of Sardinia’s elevated plateaus at around 350 meters above sea level.

In the glass, the wine displays an intense ruby red color with brilliant reflections. The bouquet is rich and complex, offering aromas of ripe red berries, cherries, and blackberries, complemented by spicy hints of pepper and leather.

On the palate, Pedrastella is full-bodied, velvety, and beautifully balanced. Six months of ageing in French oak barriques give the wine elegant tannins, depth, and a smooth structure. The finish is long, intense, and memorable.

The grapes are harvested by hand starting in early October. After temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine matures in French oak barrels and is further refined in steel tanks to achieve harmony and aromatic complexity.
