Cannonau and the Sardinian Secret: Longevity in Every Glass

Sardinia, a Mediterranean paradise and one of the world's rare Blue Zones, is renowned not only for its stunning landscapes but also for the remarkable longevity of its people. Central to this phenomenon is the Cannonau grape, a variety that thrives under the island's 320 days of sun, developing a thick skin packed with resveratrol and antioxidants—compounds increasingly linked to health and wellness. More than just a grape, Cannonau is a cornerstone of Sardinian culture, reflecting a lifestyle centered in community, tradition, and a diet rich in legumes, light on meat, and full of wine.

Pala's wines capture the soul of Sardinia, reflecting the island's rich heritage and timeless spirit. Recently, Pala entered a new chapter under the ownership of Lia Tolaini-Banville and her family, ensuring the legacy of Pala continues to thrive and prosper in the years to come.
