The flat region called "Nurra" dominates the north-western side of Sardinia. Here the land, calcareous, clayey, sandy and naturally rich in iron, meets with the breeze from sea instilling unique features in the wine. The 520 hectres of vineyards of the Sella & Mosca Estate benefit from this atmosphere and create wines for our palates to enjoy: the two main Sardinian DOCs, Vermentino di Sardegna and Cannonau di Sardegna as well as the DOC Algehero, area of the majestic Marchese di Villamarina accompanied by Tanca Farrà and the Torbato line, extraordinary example of autochtnonous varietal.

The north-western part of the Island is characterized by its granite origin and its lack of clay. The main varietal cultivated in this ares is Vermentino, of Spanish origin, but probably imported from Liguria. The DOCG Vermentino di Gallura, instituted in 1996, is the Denominiation of Controlled and Guaranteed Origin of Sardinia. Our vineyards caress the slopes of Monte Limbara. That marvellous contrast between maritime influence and hilly breeze, only here, allows for well-structured and fine grapes, perfect for our Monteoro 2014, 3 Gambero Rosso Glasses.

In this area of Sardegna, settled between the Iglesiente mountain range and Capo Teulada, the soil is sandy and rich in minerals. It is the home of Carignano, an antique varietal, probably of Phoenician origin, which obtained the designation of origin in 1977.
The six hectares of privately-owned vineyards, upwards-trained vertical-trellised, are in the Giba area, not far from the beach. Because of the particular microclimate, the harvest done earlier compared to the rest of Sardinia, at the beginning of October. This confers a good structure and soft tannins to our Terre Rare wine.
