Carignan, known as Carignano in Italy, is a versatile and robust grape variety that traces its origins to Spain but thrives particularly in Sardinia's Sulcis region. Renowned for its ability to produce deeply colored, richly flavored wines with firm tannins and vibrant acidity, Carignan excels in crafting age-worthy reds. While appreciated as a single-varietal wine in certain regions, it is often utilized in blends to add structure, complexity, and depth, particularly in Mediterranean climates. The grape’s resilience and adaptability have made it a cornerstone in both traditional and modern winemaking practices.
