IGT Barbagia, Perda Pinta, Sedilesu - 2019

This is one of the most endearing Sardinian estates! Imagine an estate created by the grandparents, Giuseppe and Grassia, taken over by their many children, and where even the grandchildren put their hands to the task of putting a bit of the soul of Barbagia (a mountainous region in the centre of the island) into each bottle. The estate has about 12 hectares of cannonau in red and granazza in white. The vineyards are cultivated at an altitude of about 600 metres, in a goblet shape, on soils of granitic origin, sprinkled with sand, with the presence of clay. The vines are ploughed twice a year by Sardinian oxen and ploughed with a hoe in the steepest areas. There is no irrigation and the cultivation is organic and certified. Harvesting usually takes place in October. Fermentation is spontaneous, using indigenous yeasts.
