“Noras” Cannonau di Sardegna DOC 2021
Noras displays a rich bouquet of crushed blackberries, plums, smoke and brown sugar, underpinned by minty herbal notes. The texture is velvety, with a polished feel to its red and black fruits and a delicately bitter hint of coffee and balsamic spices. A hint of tobacco and liquorice lingers on the long, structured final. Noras needs a little time to fully develop in the glass, but it is worth the wait and gives us plenty of pleasure. SUPERIORE.DE

Sparkling garnet red colour. Pronounced aroma of berries and spices. Dense and full flavour with a fascinating balance between fruit and tannin. A complex red with a gentle but persistent finish. SUPERIORE.DE
"A rich, fresh red, with a fragrant entry of tar, singed sage and loamy earth hints, this transitions to underscore plum pudding and dried raspberry flavors. Shows a supple frame, thanks to fine, chalky tannins, and the aromatic profile lingers on the sculpted finish." Wine Spectator
"This is a flavoursome and smooth red wine with an array of sour cherry, mushroom, nutmeg and white pepper on the nose. Medium to full-bodied with well-integrated tannins and a flavoursome, spicy finish." James Suckling
"The Carignano Riserva di Santadi is very original and unpredictable and a wine that should be drunk at least once in a lifetime. A multi-faceted bouquet, notes of pomegranate, with nuances of wild myrtle, paprika and dandelion. Crisp and taut on the palate, with excellent density and a fruity finish." Luca Gardini

The success of Cantina Sociale di Santadi is due to the performance of a very large team. Nearly three hundred smallholders with an average of just two hectares of vineyards, a very successful management, an efficient sales team and many hard-working employees have all contributed, thanks to their professionalism, to the fact that the winegrowers' cooperative in the heart of the Sulcis region, founded in 1960 thanks to the commitment of a group of winegrowers, has not only become a flagship of Sardinia, but also an important reference for the Italian wine industry. One of the most important foundations for the rise of the cooperative under its current president Antonello Pilloni is its early and clear commitment to traditional indigenous grape varieties such as Carignano, Cannonau, Monica, Vermentino and Nuragus. The Santadi cooperative also secures the livelihood of many winegrowers in the southwest of the island and successfully prevents rural exodus.
The winegrowers from the varied coastal area near Porto Pino, consisting of low mountain ranges and flat areas, are advised by experts from the cooperative and therefore create something extraordinary. The grapes come exclusively from vineyards within a radius of around 30 kilometres, some of which are still grown in ancient vineyards in the traditional Alberello culture (buscher education). The assortment is high-quality and extensive. The best red wines of Cantina Santadi - Superiore and Riserve - mature in French oak barriques and after bottling in the bottle. The efforts of the Sardinian winery for the aromatic local Nasco vine, from which delicious sweet wines are made, are very commendable.
The Cantina Santadi management team is characterized by determination and enthusiasm. After difficult beginnings in the eighties, he not only succeeded in successfully breaking new ground and using different strategies, but also landed the world-famous oenologist Giacomo Tachis as a production consultant. Thanks to his great professional commitment, the wines of the cooperative winery achieved a significant leap in quality. They were quickly recognized in the most important international markets and received numerous awards from then on. In 1984 Santadi launched the Carignano del Sulcis Terre Brune, the first red wine in Sardinia to be aged in barriques, according to Santadi. This noble wine was euphorically received by the market and is still considered today to be the prestige wine of the Sardinian cooperative. SUPERIORE.DE
"The Santadi cooperative in the southwest of the island has not only produced absolute quality wines in the 1980s, but has also demonstrated to other cooperatives on the island that with good, conscientious work, which begins with sensitising grape suppliers to quality in the vineyard, excellent results can also be achieved in cooperative wineries."Gambero Rosso
