The wine

Cannonau is the soul of Sardinia, the island’s name for Grenache. From the pebbly old riverbed of Mitza S’ollastu, Antonella Corda’s version is elegant and pure, with just a touch of Syrah and a light hand of oak.

Translucent and perfumed, it shows red cherry and raspberry, wild herbs and a signature note of white pepper, with delicate tannins and surprising freshness for its weight. Try it lightly chilled with grilled meats, lamb and hard cheese. (90% Cannonau, 10% Syrah.)

View all Antonella Corda wines

Antonella Corda makes some of Sardinia’s most refined wines, and she comes by it honestly: she is the granddaughter of Antonio Argiolas, the legendary viticulturist who did more than anyone to put the island on the wine map. Wine, as she puts it, is in her blood.

After studying agronomy at Sassari and winemaking at the renowned Edmund Mach Foundation in Trentino, she returned home in 2010 to take up two prized vineyards inherited from her grandfather, near the village of Serdiana just north of Cagliari. From them she has built a boutique, organically farmed estate of rare focus.

The vineyards tell the story: Mitza Manna, her grandfather’s favourite, on calcareous, herb-scented hills, and the pebbly old riverbed of Mitza S’ollastu. Sea winds and these distinctive soils give her wines their signature: freshness, perfume and a clear Sardinian accent.

From the aromatic, almond-tinged Vermentino to the elegant, peppery Cannonau, these are subtle, authentic wines of real class. Sardinia, gracefully reimagined by one of its brightest talents.
