“Tre Torri” Rosato Carignano del Sulcis DOC 2024
Cantina Sociale di Santadi | Sardinia
Rosato Tre Torri made from 100% Carignano is extremely charming. It is ruby red in colour in the glass and captivates from start to finish with its lively cherry berry fruit and the juiciness of blood orange. A hint of dusty, peppery tannin emerges towards the end and leaves you with the feeling of having eaten a slice of watermelon at a picnic table on a hot day. This is pure summer in a glass.

Things to know aboutCarignano

Carignano is a worldwide grape variety that is known by various synonyms. It is shrouded in legend in Sardinia, where it is said that it was brought to Sardinia by the Phoenicians in the 9th century BC. There's no proof of that, though. The variety probably comes from Spain, where it is known as Mazuela or Cariñena and has contributed significantly to the success of Priorat wines.

Cariñena – mazuela – Carignano.

In Italy it is mainly located in the southwest of Sardinia, around Carbonia and the island of Sant'Antioco. This DOC for red wine and rosato is called Carignano del Sulcis, after the nearby famous archaeological Parco del Sulcis. The legendary oenologist Giacomo Tachis, who has made the variety known, is the "Terre Brune" Carignano del Sulcis Superiore DOC from 100% Carignano made one of the best and most sought after red wines of Sardinia. Also the collaboration of Sassicaia & Santadi under the label Punica brought with the "Barrua" a Carignano dominated Isole dei Nuraghi IGT, which has won almost all Italian and international top awards in recent years.

In the rest of Sardinia, Carignano is often found as a cuvée partner, for example in Mandrolisai, where he is married to Bovale Sarde and Monica Nera, or Campidano di Terralba, in some Cannonau di Sardegna and in the coveted Isola dei Nuraghi. Carignano is rarely found on the Italian mainland, for example in Lazio, where it is occasionally cultivated in the Cerveteri. SUPERIORE.DE
