Sardinian winemaking experience
Your experience with a winemaker IN Sardinia
Vine pruning plays a fundamental role in the grape growing process with winemaking as its end goal.
Depending on the time of year, so-called dry pruning or green pruning takes place. Dry pruning aims to ensure the right balance in the plants between vegetation and production, while green pruning is very important to prevent any and all threats that can damage the vines.
We are in the small town of Atzara, in the Mandrolisai region, and the vines need to be carefully looked after by the Mannos winemaker, Antonella. You will be able to witness and experience her daily life activities and tasks in the vineyard, during which she will reveal to you her knowledge and passion.
In addition to moments of active participation and knowledge-sharing by the winemaker, there will be the opportunity to taste the excellent Mandrolisai wine, which is produced right here, accompanied by a delicious platter of cold meats and cheeses.
Furthermore, if you wish to, you can participate, again in an active way, in a true typical lunch, with the best Sardinian products accompanied by the king of the table, the Mandrolisai wine.
Discover what exactly is in the food we eat, reconnect with nature and be surprised by the wonders of the Mandrolisai vineyards.
