The producer

The relationship Giovanni Cherchi has with the land is unique. It is an intimate, close relationship, with love that expresses itself through continual care, respect and experience. The company's vineyards enjoy a unique geographical position among sweet Sardinian hills, which are exposed to the sun throughout most of the day and benefit from light breezes which come from the nearby sea. With picturesque names like "Pirapiglias" and "Sena and Sulumu", the grapevines cover about twenty hectares. The salient characteristics of this company are the traditions that are passed on from father to son and a never-ending search for even greater quality.
