Vinera Riserva 2017

Dark ruby with garnet margins. The 2017 vintage in Mamoiada was also very hot, a drought that lasted from February to December and that made this wine smoother, more docile than the other reds of this producer. A Cannonau cultivated with traditional sapling, with a wonderful aroma of earth, undergrowth, vanilla and much more. In the mouth there is the elegance of the tannin and the softness of the vintage that make this wine enjoyable and never predictable.

Antonio Mele

Wine cellar

Antonio Mele winery was founded in 2010 in Mamoiada, a small area of central Sardinia where it is mainly cultivated with Cannonau grapes, with small particles of “autochthonous white” Granatza. “We have always produced wine from our family vineyard in Basarule. In 2010 we planted a new 4-hectare vineyard, where we initially sold the grapes to the wineries in the area and partly vinified them as table wine. In a few years we have managed to reach an important goal for us, which is to fully vinifie all our grapes from which wines are born that we currently market and make known outside our borders. Our company is totally Organic. We work our own vineyards trying to be as little invasive as possible, giving the time and space that nature and its cycles need. Vineyards are located at 650 m. s. l. m. and are located in an area called “Su hastru and Su Orvu” facing north – east, which in Italian means “La Fortezza del Corvo” motif also taken from the company logo. From here we produce three main wines: Vinera, Vinera Rosato and Ishopu. While the Vinera Riserva is born from a vineyard in the locality of Tarasunele over eighty years of age, cultivated as a sapling, facing South. Our wine cellar is located in the town of Mamoiada, in an old ballroom of the ‘70s.
