After years of searching Emiliano discovered a 0.5 hectare vineyard of 100% Cannonau in the highest altitude area in Mamoiada, ‘Ghirada Sa’ Lahana’. Planted in 2000 to sandy granite with a SW face at 760m , this is one of the latest ripening spots on the island. Sa’ Lahana means ‘the border’, referring to the extreme limit of the growing zone. After 10 days spontaneous fermentation and maceration on the skins for 14 days, the wine matures for 12 months in used oak barrels. Unfined, unfiltered. First vintage 2024. 1700 bottles.

Emiliano is a leader of the new generation of Mamoiada producers that is searching for intensity with freshness and elegance, a counterpoint to the massive, rich wines of the past.
