Carignano de Sulcis

About the Producer:
The Capichera estate was born in the 1920’s as a country home where the Ragnedda family made just enough wine to satisfy their own needs. The area, near Arzachena on the northern tip of Sardegna, was already known for its ideal grape-growing terroir, but not until the 70’s did the family plant more extensive vineyards throughout their 60 hectares and build a modern cellar. This preparation paid off in the following decade, when the first Capichera Vermentino was released and immediately raised a jealous fervor in its most famous competitors. Brothers Fabrizio and Mario Ragnedda now run the estate together, striving to optimize quality and thus earn Capichera a place among Italy’s most elite producers.
