Terroir: Barrua is produced in the clay and sandy soils of southwestern Sardinia, an area particularly suited to viticulture thanks to the Mediterranean climate with hot, windy summers. The climatic conditions favor slow ripening, which contributes to the aromatic richness and structure of the region's wines.

Vinification: Harvesting is manual, followed by traditional vinification. The grapes are fermented in steel, followed by a long maceration on the skins to extract the maximum aromatic and tannic qualities. The wine matures in French oak barriques for about 18 months, conferring complexity and depth.
