Carignano Wines
Carignano is a rich, full-bodied red wine produced in the territories of Carbonia and Iglesias, which are part of the southern area of Sardinia known historically as Sulcis. It is obtained from an ancient vine of Spanish origin, originally called Cariñena, which arrived on the island during the rule of the Aragonese in the late Middle Ages and was also widely diffused in Mediterranean France, particularly in the Languedoc-Roussillon area. Matured in wood or, more rarely, only in steel, Carignano wine can claim the Riserva designation after two years of refinement and the Superiore designation if, in addition to the same period of refinement, the vines are trained using the alberello system, as tradition demands. With its warm, intense and robust personality, it is one of the greatest, most traditional and essential expressions of the territory.
