This is a red wine made from 100% Cannonau grapes, which is what the Sardinians call Grenache. In order to be labeled Riserva, a Cannonau di Sardegna must have a minimum strength of 13% alcohol by volume, and it must have been aged for at least two years before commercial release. Sella & Mosca’s offering has a nice, medium-light body, with fairly rich, earthy flavors and easygoing tannins.
