Pairings

Senes is a wine that lends itself to accompanying structured and intense dishes, especially meat: for example, with mixed boiled meats or beef stew flavoured with bay leaves and cloves. It is also ideal with long-aged cheeses, such as certain Pecorino di Osilo cheeses, which are grainy when cut, spicy to the taste and of great intensity and persistence.

From this winery
  • Start up year: 1938
  • Oenologist: Mariano Murru
  • Bottles produced: 2.500.000
  • Hectares: 250
Antonio Argiolas used the term idea to define the dream of a winery capable of telling the world about itself, drawing strength from tradition. The legacy of that ambition, guarded by his sons Franco and Giuseppe, is today enhanced by his grandchildren Valentina, Francesca and Antonio who, as parents of a new generation, do not stop betting on the value of the land and its production, investing in training and comparison.

From their grand old man, a monument to an extraordinary entrepreneurial history, they have picked up the stubbornness and sense of challenge to the world, the simple and authentic joy of harvesting and crushing, the passion that springs from the bubbling musts and the effervescent young wines, the personality that defines the tenacious and mature wines, as soft as the limestone in which their roots are sunk, perfumed and savoury like the sea, long-lived like Sardinians.

In 1979 Antonio Argiolas, an established local entrepreneur, went to Argentina and California. These travels were a source of inspiration for him, and represented the beginning of a revolution; in fact these showed him the needs to overcome the parcelling out the countryside, which was widespread on the island, and to employ technologically advanced machines to work larger expanses of land under single ownership.

So, he acquired the lands of Selegas-Sa Tanca and Susini, the Winery’s largest estates. These are the places that Argiolas wine speak of, emblems of the strength, courage and farsightedness of the idea. Read more
