The Bianco ‘Li Sureddi’ by Antichi Vigneti Manca is a white wine made from Vermentino and Girò Bianco grapes, originally from Romangia. This project, started in 2017 by two sisters (sureddi in Sardinian), aims to respect the vine, the soil and its natural cycles as much as possible, both in the vineyard and in the winery. The vines are cared for with great attention and vinification is carried out in an artisanal way, trying to minimise interventions to enhance the varietal notes of the grapes and the unique characteristics of the terroir. Li Sureddi' Bianco comes from the Badde Pira estate - Sorso (SS), located in the hilly hinterland of Romangia, a picturesque area in the north-western part of Sardinia. This area is known for its warm and always breezy climate, thanks to the Mistral that blows strongly from the north-west. The vines, which are between 40 and 50 years old, are mainly cultivated using the alberello system. The soils consist of white marl rich in limestone and sandstone, of ancient marine origin.

The Bianco ‘Li Sureddi’ of Antichi Vigneti Manca, produced in Romangia by two sisters since 2017, is an artisanal wine of Vermentino and Girò Bianco, cultivated respecting nature, on limestone and sandstone soils.

"Li Sureddi" Romangia Rosso by Antichi Vigneti Manca is a wine that carries with it the rich winemaking tradition of Sardinia. Made from grapes of the rare and ancient clone of Cannonau known as Retagliadu Nieddu, this wine is a testament to the passionate attention that the Manca sisters devote to the preservation of this grape variety, which was recognized and included in the ampelographic records of the main Sardinian grape varieties by Cettolini Sante, a scholar of vines in Sardinia in the late 1800s and early 1900s. The name "Retagliadu Nieddu," which means "black clipped" in Italian, was precisely so called because of the multiple cuts made at harvest since it has small but widespread clusters on the plant. The sensory profile of "Li Sureddi" is a harmonious fusion of fruity notes and aromatic herbs. In the mouth, the presence of well-integrated tannins and just the right amount of alcoholic matter give the wine a robust structure, while maintaining a pleasant balance thanks to a subtle spiciness and a pleasant savoriness. This wine embodies the perfect combination of finesse and expressiveness.
