Esole Ghirada Garaunele Barbagia Tinto 2024 is a red wine made by ’Esole in Mamoiada, Sardinia, Italy, under the IGT Barbagia designation.
It is a single-varietal Cannonau (Grenache), the native grape variety of Sardinia, sourced from the Ghirada Garaunele, a vineyard located at 650 metres above sea level, with southern exposure and 5-year-old vines trained in bush vines. The vineyard covers 0.5 hectares.
The grapes are hand-harvested in early September. Fermentation takes place spontaneously, with the grapes undergoing 7 to 10 days of maceration, using 100% destemmed grapes.
The wine is aged for 10 months between French oak tonneaux and stainless steel tanks, before being bottled in early September.
