Surrau, Isola dei Nuraghi IGT (Sardinia, Italy) 2020

Feb 7, 2024

By Rebecca Murphy

 The  Demuro family founded the Surrau Winery on the Mediterranean island of Sardinia in 2001.  The family has more than 50 hectares of land covered by vineyards.  Mariolino Siddi is the winemaker.  The wine is made of Carignan, Cannaou (known as Grenache in France and Garnacha in Spain) and Muristellu (also known as Graciano in Spain), it has a dense, black ruby color, with restrained, concentrated flavors of black cherry, blackberry, and black plum, with nicely balanced acidity and husky tannins.  It cries out for rare roast beef.
