The ancient name "Masone Mannu" means "great property", which extends for almost 100 hectares, of which about 40 are planted with specialized vineyard.
Since 2018 the Estate is the subject of a big development project led by Giordano Emendatori, owner of the Tenuta Mara Biodynamic Estate in Romagna. In our vineyards we mainly grow the most important grape in Gallura: Vermentino. Cannonau, Carignano vines, together with Bovale Sardo, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon enrich the cultivated varieties.
The sea wind, the exposure of the vineyards and the rich nature surrounding the estate help us to grow healthy grapes without the use of pesticides, herbicides and chemical fertilizers. Read more
