Cardedu is a family-run winery dedicated to showcasing the raw beauty of Sardinia’s native grapes. Their 2020 Cannonau di Sardegna ‘Caladu’ is an unadorned, terroir-driven expression of Cannonau (a close relative of Grenache), sourced from organically farmed vineyards in the rugged hills of Ogliastra, on the island’s eastern coast. With minimal intervention in the cellar, this wine is all about the sun, wind, and wild landscapes of Sardinia.
Juicy red cherry, wild raspberry, and dried fig unfold alongside hints of rosemary, black pepper, and a touch of smoky earth. The palate is vibrant yet structured, with soft tannins and refreshing acidity that keep it lifted and balanced.
