FERRUCCIO DEIANA AZIENDA VITIVINICOLA

Profile

A great passion and solid technical skills prompted Ferruccio Deiana to found a winery, finally fulfilling a long-time dream to have his own vineyards and make his own wines.

His mission was drawing the attention of winelovers to Basso Campidano and Parteolla, lands of beautiful nature and rich culture. This part of Sardinia, extending between Cagliari and the crags of Punta Serpeddì, in the rugged territory of Sarrabus-Gerrei, is celebrated for its sweet hills and fertile valleys. Since antiquity, these lands have been a lucky realm of grapevine, wheat, and olive.

Ferruccio's passion was immediately supported by his wife, Mariagrazia. Later it was met by the enthusiasm of his son, Dario, who helped Ferruccio for years until he finally joined the winery officially, following his father's steps with comparable passion and commitment.

The winery has always been open to cutting-edge research and experiences, from all over the world, concerning viticulture and winemaking methods. The wines are produced by leveraging modern, high-level, sophisticated techniques.

The winery lies in the territory of the municipality of Settimo San Pietro (Cagliari), mostly in a place called Su Leunaxi.

Here, traditional knowledge meets modern technologies to give great wines. The winery extends for 100 ha, and cultivars have been carefully selected through the years, in accordance with the pedological characteristics of the soil. The vineyards were planted on rolling terrains using a cordon-trained Guyot system. Water is provided regularly by a drip irrigation system and olives line the internal roads of the estate.
