In the picturesque south east of the island, Cantina Castiadas is one of Sardinia's most esteemed wineries. Located near the picturesque beaches of Costa Rei and the rugged mountainous landscapes, the vines thrive under optimal sun exposure and cooling sea breezes, yielding grapes of exceptional quality. Established in 1959, it has become synonymous with Sardinian winemaking excellence.
The winery was founded as a cooperative, uniting the efforts of local growers to produce wines that express the unique terroir of the region. Today, it continues to thrive as a symbol of collaboration, with its members cultivating vineyards across a diverse array of soils and microclimates. The region’s signature varietals, Cannonau and Vermentino, flourish in the Mediterranean climate moderated by the nearby sea. The vineyards, rooted in granitic sands and clay soils, lend the wines pronounced intensity and minerality. Traditional vinification in stainless steel vats ensures that the grape’s natural character shines through, highlighting its inherent qualities.
The vibrant Vermentino di Sardegna is characterised by crisp acidity, floral notes, and hints of citrus. The sparkling portfolio, using Cannonau to create a Blanc de Noirs, is all about freshness, minerality, and vibrant aromatics. The Saeprus Brut Nature spends over 36 months ageing on the lees.
