Description
What kind of wine it is
Pani Loriga by Santadi is a still red wine that honestly expresses the authenticity of Cannonau di Sardegna. To the eye, it displays an intense ruby red colour, heralding a direct and fragrant sensory profile. On the palate, it offers a silky and elegant sip, characterised by clear aromas of crisp, freshly picked red fruit. Its balanced structure makes it an ideal choice to accompany the entire meal with versatility.
Where it comes from
This Cannonau originates in the Basso Sulcis area of Sardinia, from carefully tended, trellised vineyards. The vines sink their roots into distinctive sandy and granitic soils, a mineral composition that gives the wine a precise territorial identity and notable smoothness. This origin lends the wine remarkable flexibility at the table, harmoniously enhancing succulent meat main courses, spicy recipes, and structured vegetarian dishes.
How it is produced
The production cycle begins in September with the manual harvest. Afterwards, the grapes ferment in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature for about fifteen days; during this phase, maceration and pumping over allow for optimal extraction of polyphenols from the skins. Next, the wine matures through cement ageing for several months, stabilising its fragrant organoleptic profile and maintaining maximum consistency with the characteristics of the original grape variety.
History and Curiosities
The Pani Loriga 2023 from Santadi expresses the authentic soul of Lower Sulcis, born from Cannonau grapes grown on sandy and granitic soils. Hand-harvested in September, the grapes ferment in stainless steel for fifteen days with expert pump-overs, extracting the best aromas and colour. The subsequent ageing in cement tanks gives this wine a vibrant, intense ruby red colour and a silky and elegant palate. Perfect when served at 14-16°C after an hour of decanting, it offers fragrant notes of crisp red fruit.
