Description:

A deep ruby ​​red with garnet highlights, it presents a highly intense nose with notes of concentrated red fruits, Mediterranean spices, aromatic herbs, Sardinian scrub, iron-rich minerality, and balsamic nuances. On the palate, it is powerful and structured, with substantial yet ripe tannins, great concentration, and a very long finish reminiscent of Sardinia's garrigue and wild herbs. Here, Cannonau expresses its full territorial expression. It pairs magnificently with roast lamb, furred game, braised meats, aged pecorino cheeses, and characterful Sardinian cured meats. Perfect with specialties such as roast suckling pig, wild boar with myrtle, and traditional Sardinian dishes.

Tenores takes its name from the Cannonau vineyard and the famous Sardinian bards, representing the highest and most poetic expression of the Dettori winery. Alessandro Dettori vinifies this Cannonau following the philosophy of pure biodynamic agriculture, without chemical analysis, selected yeasts, or technological interventions. The vineyard is located in the Badde Nigolosu cru, on calcareous soils on a hillside 300 meters above sea level. Spontaneous fermentation occurs in concrete tanks, a material that allows for natural micro-oxygenation and preserves the authenticity of the terroir. Extended aging develops complexity while maintaining the expressive power of Cannonau, Sardinia's iconic grape.
