Centosere Cannonau di Sardegna DOC

    • Description :

      Inspiration from Pala about what Centosere means: "Centosere" means "a hundred evenings" or a hundred soirées. Centosere is Cannonau di Sardegna, son of Sardinia, proud, strong and at the same time gentle and elegant, determined. It makes you slowly discover the scents of myrtle, a walk in the woods of Sardinia, a ripe strawberry patch and that sudden gust of wind full of salt from the sea, which on the island is never far away, which pricks your nose like black pepper and that comes to you even when you are up in the mountains.
      Vineyard Sites: "Is Crabilis" (Serdiana) and "Acquasassa" (Ussana)
      Vinification, Maturation, Aging: The grapes, after a soft pressing, are left to macerate with the addition of selected yeasts for about 6/7 days. After the maceration, the fermentation continues at a controlled temperature. At the end of the fermentation, refinement continues in cement and stainless steel tanks for about six months. The wine is then bottled and refined for 2/3 months in the bottle before release.
