Contini 1898

Written by Piero Pardini

CONTINI 1898 – SARDINIA – ITALY

The Contini winery has grown like the wines and successes that have made it great, through the passion and commitment of four generations.

For almost 120 years a single common thread, represented by Vernaccia di Oristano, has characterized the work of the Contini company. Then, over the years, Vernaccia has been joined by other important productions: the historic Nieddera vine, the traditional Vermentino and Cannonau, successful experiments such as Karmis, Attilio and organic Mamaioa.

Today, the company produces a full range of wines with which it is present in Italy and abroad. It does not stop evolving, both in winemaking techniques and in ideas.
