Vineyards That Speak to the Heart

Amid the gentle hills of Sardinia, where the breeze carries the scent of the sea and Mediterranean scrub, lie our vineyards. They are not just neat rows of vines, but living pages of a story rooted deeply in the earth and centuries past. Every vine is a memory; every cluster, an ancient tale.

The hands that tend them today are the same that inherited the gestures and rituals from generations before. Pruning, caring for the leaves, patiently waiting — all part of a dance repeated every year, yet never the same. In the quiet of the morning, when the sun gently touches the first leaves, there is an almost sacred solemnity. It is the voice of the past whispering through the shoots, and the future preparing to sprout.

In the heart of Ogliastra, just a few kilometers from the crystal-clear beaches of Cea and Orrì, stand Tenute Gebelias — a place where wine is not just made but told as a story.

Founded in the early years of the last century, the estate grew following the footsteps of Nicola Loddo’s grandfather, the current head of the winery. The vineyards lie within the so-called Blue Zone, one of only five areas in the world with the highest concentration of centenarians. And it’s no coincidence: the Cannonau produced here boasts antioxidant properties ten times greater than other wines.

If you find yourself in Sardinia, make a stop in Bari Sardo. Tenute Gebelias welcomes you with open arms, a glass of wine in hand, and a story to share.
