Until the 1980s, the activity was limited to the production and sale of bulk wine, with timid initiatives to sell bottled wine, with poor results.
In the mid-1970s, with the arrival of a new board of directors, headed by current president Antonello Pilloni, a turning point occurred. The new management team was animated by great enthusiasm and passion, and the Internationally renowned oenologist Giacomo Tachis was called in as a consultant. He took the fate of the Cantina Santadi to heart, became attached to the territory, and with his intervention the wines of the Cantina di Santadi took a quantum leap, so much so that they were immediately accepted in the most important markets, with awards for great quality and strong identity.
From then on it has been a continuous crescendo; the Santadi wine brand is increasingly widespread and appreciated all over the world, the success of which is undoubtedly due to the team, i.e. the producers, administrators, salesmen, collaborators and workers all of whom represent a heritage of great professionalism for the territory.
