Varietal Birthplace Year
Cannonau Sardinia 2007
The Cantina Oliena enjoys an intense ruby red color and aromas of sweet red apple skins, ripe plum and subtle spice notes. You may also pick up notions of coffee, mocha and wild thyme. It's a unique, medium-bodied Italian red with flavors of plums, currants and black raspberry. It's a thinking person's wine, very engaging, with good length and notable tannins.
Raspberry, red currant, ripe plum, cherry cola, coffee, mocha and spice.
The origins of the Cannonau grape are unknown, though the general belief is that the vine was probably brought from Spain in the 4th century and is actually Grenache. Local Sardinians, however, are extremely protective of its origins and will confidently tell you that the grape has been growing on the island since the Neolithic period. Cantina Oliena was founded in 1950 specifically to raise the profile of Oliana's Cannonau de Sardegna wines beyond Sardinia.
The medium-bodied Cantina Oliena is a good match for my Salami Salad with Mozzarella and Tomato. Think classic salad Caprese (tomato, mozzarella and basil) with salami tossed in. Make sure to have that crusty Italian bread there to soak up the juices in the salad!
At the turn of the last century the great Italian poet Gabriele D'Annunzio wrote that just one sip of the Oliena's finest "would make you never want to leave Sardinia."
