Be'Luna Cannonau Blend

WINERY BENTU LUNA
REGION Sardegna

Be luna, a Sardinian red made from 40% Sardinian Bovale, 35% from Cannonau and the remaining 25% from Monica. With a very small production, of about 1200 bottles, from 115-year-old vines, it stands out for its complex and refined nose, with notes of cherry, cinchona, tobacco and Mediterranean scrub. In the mouth it reveals a great finesse, embellished with a balsamic note, which evokes an ancient Sardinia.
