Product Notes

Cantina Santadi Carignano del Sulcis Grotta Rossa wine is a splendid offering from the Sardinian region of Italy. This lush, ruby-red wine boasts a rich complexity of flavours, with notes of mature red fruits, Mediterranean herbs, and subtle hints of spice. Expertly crafted with 100% Carignano grapes, it has an indulgently full body, perfect balance, and a pleasantly persistent finish. Its impressive aromatic intensity pairs wonderfully with red meat dishes, game, and matured cheeses. An exquisite example of Italian viticulture, the Grotta Rossa wine is an elegant experience, guaranteed to add an element of sophistication to any evening.

Tasting Notes

Mature, gamey nose, almost Pinot in style but the palate is fuller and serious. Delicate violet notes on the nose followed by attractive, violet fruit. Delicately made. Toffee smells on the nose and a pleasant palate with slightly ageing fruit and interesting flavour of mushroom on the finish. Complex, deep and delicious blend of tarry blackcurrant fruit with underlying richness of dried fig.

About the Winery

Located in the southern part of Sardinia, the Cantina Santadi winery is a prestigious name in the world of wines. The winery was founded in 1960 and is nestled in the heart of the Sulcis region.

The expansive estate of Cantina Santadi extends over an area of nearly 600 hectares. With vineyards that revel in Mediterranean weather, the winery produces wine from regional grapes such as Carignano, Vermentino, and Nuragus.

Kissing the waters of the Mediterranean, the resultant wines are of a character that truly signifies their origin.

Over the years, Cantina Santadi has been synonymous with quality and sophistication. This reputation is not unearned: its consistent production of superior wines has won it critical acclaim and numerous accolades on international platforms. Along with being a successful commercial venture, Cantina Santadi is equally committed to playing a large conservationist role.

The winery runs sustainable initiatives that focus on minimal environmental impact. It also adopts measures for respecting the species and biodiversity unique to the Sulcis region. Innately tied to its land and cultures, Cantina Santadi is thus a guardian of the area's rich heritage. As a tribute to its commitment, it has helped bolster eco-friendly wine tourism in Sardinia.

Revered for the crisp flavours and full-bodied texture of its wines, Cantina Santadi is an experience for every wine connoisseur.
