TERRITORY
OUR VINEYARDS ARE BORN ON
GRANITIC SOILS EXPOSED TO
BRINY WINDS
The heart of the estate is located 2 km from the village, where our Agriturismo and our Winery are based, along with the restaurant, tasting room, and guest rooms. It is here that our vineyards of Vermentino are located, at an altitude of 350 meters a.s.l. on weathered granitic soil with a medium-textured, sandy tendency. They enjoy ideal sun exposure and the full benefit of the briny winds coming from the nearby sea, favored by an optimal temperature range between day and night, even during the hottest periods. The red grape vineyards (and a large part of the woodland and Mediterranean scrub used for grazing) are located 5 km from the main estate, on the mountain overlooking the village of Monti at the edge of the state forestry land (Monte Olia) at 550 meters a.s.l. These vineyards also grow on weathered granitic, poor, and sandy soil that is quite difficult to work, in a truly favorable climatic position, benefiting from the winds coming from the coast and significant temperature fluctuations.

MONTI
A village rich in history, traditions, and culture in the Gallura region
The territory of Monti, like the rest of Gallura, is rich in archaeological, architectural, and environmental sites of great interest. The first evidence of human presence dates back to the Neolithic period, continuing through to the Nuragic period. In this regard, the remains of Taerra are noteworthy, from which our Vermentino takes its name. The village is also rich in ancient rural churches, where various religious festivals are accompanied by culinary traditions for which the village is well-known in the region. Nestled between the Monte Acuto plateau and Monte Limbara, its territory offers evocative landscapes in an alternation of cork oak forests, Mediterranean scrub undergrowth, vineyards, and unique granitic formations. Here, viticulture has ancient roots and remains the primary activity of the village today.

GALLURA
Rich in archaeological sites and an important tourist destination in Sardinia
The Gallura region is a historical and geographical area of Sardinia. It encompasses the northeastern part of the island, rich in exceptional winemaking resources in the lands of the renowned Vermentino di Gallura. The entire landscape frames the vineyards of Vermentino di Gallura DOCG , which is the protagonist. Gallura is also particularly important from an archaeological point of view, as it is rich in nuraghi, Giants’ graves, and also ancient churches dating back to the Middle Ages. It is one of the most beautiful areas of Sardinia, where culinary traditions, the sea, countryside, and mountains offer unique experiences and breathtaking landscapes. It is one of the most appreciated locations for tourism because it is rich in natural treasures: the crystal-clear sea, splendid coves and beautiful sandy beaches, vegetation characterized by Mediterranean scrub, mountains, and granitic plateaus. All these ingredients make Gallura unique and unmistakable, also ideal for nature hiking.
In Gallura in the north of the island, just 15 minutes from our Estate, lies Olbia, with its port and Costa Smeralda Airport, a strategic point for island tourism.

SARDINIA
Unspoiled Mediterranean beauty and the realm of the Nuragic civilization
The Sardinia island is the second largest in the Mediterranean Sea, as well as an Italian region with a special statute whose official name is the Autonomous Region of Sardinia. The Special Statute, established in the 1948 Constitution, guarantees the administrative autonomy of local institutions to protect geographical and linguistic peculiarities.
In modern times, many travelers and writers have praised the beauty of Sardinia, immersed in an environment that is still largely pristine with various endemic species, and in a landscape that hosts the remains of the Nuragic.
civilization. The Mediterranean climate is typical of much of Sardinia. Along the coastal areas, thanks to the presence of the sea, winters are mild with temperatures rarely dropping below freezing. Summers are hot and dry, characterized by significant ventilation. Sea breezes and constant winds make it possible to withstand high summer temperatures that normally exceed 86°F (30°C) and even reach 95°F (35°C). Even in the inland plains and hills, the climate is typically Mediterranean, although due to the greater distance from the sea, lower winter temperatures and higher summer temperatures are recorded compared to coastal areas.
