Bentu Luna Cannonau di Sardegna Susu 2021

Bentu Luna’s Susu 2021 is a still red wine that offers an expressive take on Cannonau, shaped by the distinctive character of Neoneli in Sardinia. Its roots in the area’s long-standing winegrowing traditions are reflected in a savoury, Mediterranean profile and a fresh, lingering finish.

Tasting Notes
Deep ruby red in the glass, Susu opens with aromas of red and dark fruit, warming spice and pepper, alongside balsamic notes reminiscent of Mediterranean scrub. The palate is fresh and flavourful, with balanced structure and a long finish that echoes the fruit and spice of the nose. Specific guidance on its aging potential is not available.

Production
The grapes come from vineyards around Neoneli, in the heart of Sardinia’s historic Giudicato di Arborea. In the cellar, the grapes are slowly destemmed and spontaneously fermented with native yeasts in concrete tanks, using a combination of whole berries and bunches. Gentle manual punch-downs help guide extraction; after malolactic fermentation, the wine rests in used oak barrels, with careful bâtonnage during aging.

Food & Serving
Try Susu with grilled or roasted meats, herb-seasoned lamb, aged cheeses or hearty dishes featuring beans and Mediterranean herbs. Serve at around 16–18°C. A short rest in a decanter before serving can help the wine’s aromatic character open up.

Producer
Bentu Luna is a Sardinian winery project led by the Moratti family, focused on championing the island’s rural traditions and local grape varieties. Based in Neoneli, the producer works in an area with a deep connection to Cannonau and its regional identity.
