The Cannonau di Sardegna Mamuthone di Giuseppe Sedilesu is made from 100% Cannonau grapes from the Mamoiada area, in the province of Nuoro. The vineyards, cultivated as bush vines, are located on sandy soils naturally rich in potassium, at an average altitude of 720 meters above sea level. After the harvest, carried out with a yield of 50 quintals per hectare, the grapes were transported to the cellar for vinification. Alcoholic fermentation took place spontaneously with maceration of the must in contact with the skins for 12-15 days. The aging lasted for 12 months in 40-hectoliter wooden barrels. No filtration operations were carried out.

Completing the olfactory profile are hints of cloves, black pepper, and oriental spices. The taste is warm and enveloping, enhanced by strong tannins and a clear fresh-savory trail that lingers in a long finish. It pairs well with aged cheeses as well as succulent meat-based dishes featuring red meats.
