Sardinia is home to 15 distinct wine regions. The majority of these are situated on the western side of the island, where the topography and soils support high-quality wine production. The island’s signature red grape is Cannonau (Grenache), which is used throughout the island to make rich, fruit-forward wines. Carignano (Carignan) is the headliner of bold, intense wines from the windswept sands of the southwestern Sardinian appellation of Carignano del Sulcis. The island’s signature white grape is Vermentino, which is known for its bright acidity and zesty fruit character.
