Cannonau
The grape variety known in Sardinia as cannonau is actually the French grenache or better still the Spanish garnacha. It is a grape present throughout the Mediterranean area and one of the most widespread in the world. Most likely it arrived in Sardinia during the period of the Aragonese domination of the 13th century AD. Today it is cultivated throughout the island under the Sardinian Cannonau DOC regional denomination. Among the most suitable areas we remember: Nepente di Oliena, Capo Ferrato and Jerzu.
