2023 Pala “Centosere” Cannonau, Sardinia, Italy
ABOUT THE WINE
Produced from 100% Cannonau, Sardinia’s historic expression of Grenache, “Centosere” comes from mature vines rooted in the sun-soaked, limestone-influenced landscapes of southern Sardinia. The vineyards benefit from warm Mediterranean days, cooling sea breezes, and naturally low yields that create concentration while preserving freshness.
The wine is fermented with a focus on purity and regional identity, with aging in neutral vessels rather than new oak to highlight Cannonau’s natural aromas and texture. The result is a wine that combines ripe red berries, cherry, subtle floral tones, wild herbs, spice, and a touch of earthy complexity. Supple tannins and a rounded mouthfeel make it immediately approachable, while its structure reflects the rugged Sardinian terroir.
A classic partner for Mediterranean cuisine, it pairs beautifully with roasted poultry, grilled lamb, tomato-based pastas, charcuterie, aged pecorino, and herb-driven dishes.

Founded in 1950 in the village of Serdiana in southern Sardinia, Pala is a family-run estate dedicated to preserving the island’s native grape varieties while embracing thoughtful, modern winemaking.
