More information on Cannonau
Cannonau is a wine appellation produced throughout the wild and green territory of Sardinia, the second largest island of the Mediterranean sea. If you’re on the hunt for a wine destination where you can enjoy unforgettable winery visits while admiring breathtaking views of the crystalline water of the Mediterranean, then a Cannonau wine tasting is probably what you’re looking for.
Your Cannonau wine tastings will most likely include various types of wine, as the appellation not only includes red wines, but also rosé and fortified wines. Probably the best examples of Cannonau di Sardegna are the ones produced in the southern and eastern parts of the island, in the provinces of Nuoro and South Sardinia. Within these provinces, three subareas have been officially recognized as production areas for Cannonau wines of a particular quality: Nepente di Oliena (or Oliena), Capo Ferrato, and Jerzu. Wines from the oldest area, the province of Nuoro, bear the mention Classico.

Cannonau is quite sturdy, its yield is not particularly high but it has good adaptability, which explains its spreading in very different areas of the island. Cannonau wines are characterized by a ruby red color, tending toward orange with aging, a relatively high sugar level and modest acidity.
