Our Story: Near Sorgono, in the heart of Sardinia, three vineyards tell our history. The first belonged to my paternal grandfather since the early 1900s, located in the Burdaga area. The second is at Su Boscu and the third at Figu, boasting one of Mandorlisai’s prime exposures. These vineyards thrive on pink and white granite soils, caressed by sea breezes. Traditional local varieties are cultivated here. This is where grapes transform into wine, slowly accompanying our lives over time.
