Chidera Cannonau di Sardegna bottiglia

Chidera Rosso

Cannonau DOC

“If I were to imagine CHIDERA in human form, I’d say that it is a female wine. A beautiful and simple Sardinian woman, quiet yet hospitable, with a smile on her face. In defiance of common misconceptions that consider Cannonau to always be merely heavy, broad and extremely strong.”

Flavour
Colour

 

CHIDERA is a bright and glossy ruby red colour

 

 

Bouquet

On the nose, it is initially discreet and almost shy, awaiting the necessary amount of oxygen which will allow it to slowly blossom with elegant expressions of autumn florality, black cherry jam and a wide range of spices including pepper and clove

Flavour

 

Well-rounded and enveloping thanks to its glycerine content.  The alcohol, warm and strongly present, is almost imperceptible when swallowing, because it is well-metabolised by a general structure which sees the low acidity sustained by soft yet present tannins.

Grapes

  • 100 % Cannonau

 

Carefully selecting the grapes used and growing the vines without synthetic treatments gives our Cannonau the traditional flavour of a vintage Cannonau DOC
