Neoneli, Sardinia

At Neoneli, every sip of wine is our father and our son, the mother marks it as the beginning. It’s rock, thunder, needles
thin lines of freezing rain. It’s sun in the clouds. And it’s a gamble, desired and accepted years ago by investing
in culture, so that our country and our countryside were fertile: to save the identity, the traditions, ours
strength and with this strength open ourselves to the world. It’s not just a matter of resistance, of perseverance: it’s real
stubbornness, is going beyond reason. It is a debt to our people, which they have been able to maintain for centuries
the quality of these vineyards.
You don’t measure a debt with money or sweat. It is a heritage that is difficult to live with, but impossible to leave behind.
Years ago we made a bet. It’s called Cantine di Neoneli. A simple and challenging name, which
expresses the territory and its community without mincing words. In bureaucratic jargon it is a Simple Agricultural Society.
For us it is love, passion, effort and pride. They are our old, precious sapling strains. Today we work
a vineyard area of ​​over 6 hectares, divided into around twenty vineyards, some owned by the respective companies
families, and the others rented especially by elderly people who can no longer look after them. They would go
lost, their story forgotten forever.
