In this 2021 vintage, Cantinone confirms its iconic status. More floral, with accents of rose and potpourri, it demonstrates all the finesse that Sciacarellu can offer. With a magnificent tannic structure that's beginning to refine, it has silky, velvety length, more smoky, spicy, and delicately woody aromas, and. magnificent persistence on the palate. A great wine!

Under Manu’s leadership, the domaine has cemented itself as one of the top estates on the island. Manu sees himself as a guardian of this land and heritage, stating “My philosophy is the same everywhere; High environmental value, organic agriculture, biodynamic agriculture, permaculture, breeding, bee-keeping … I made these choices for the preservation of my island, my land, the men and women who live there and, more globally, the planet. I am not a utopian, nor an esoteric dogmatic, I am simply a farmer in love with the nature and every day I work on this alchemy, I try to observe it, understand it and accompany it simply to pay homage to it. This makes me and my wines better. If not better, then at least consistent with what we are and what our land expresses.”
