Tenute Filigheddu

Tenute Filigheddu Winery is a young, family-run estate in the heart of Gallura, with vineyards stretching between Arzachena and Palau.

The story of the winery began in 2005 with the planting of the first vines in Caldosa, a picturesque countryside location in Arzachena, where an ancient Gallurese stazzo from the 1800s stands as a testament to the deep connection with the land. In 2014, the estate expanded with new vineyards in Stazzo Pulcheddu, an area suspended between land and sea, constantly caressed by the Mistral wind, which imparts character and minerality to the grapes.

That same year, in Palau, an old stable was transformed into a modern winery, where tradition and innovation come together to create wines that reflect the authenticity of the territory. In 2017, the estate embarked on a journey towards sustainable agriculture, and starting from the 2019 harvest, obtained organic certification, reaffirming its commitment to environmental sustainability and biodiversity conservation.

Today, the vineyards extend over rolling hills immersed in Mediterranean scrub, producing organically certified wines—the result of a viticulture that respects nature and a meticulous focus on quality. Every stage of cultivation and winemaking follows a minimal intervention approach, aimed at preserving the natural balance of the soil and enhancing the purest expression of the terroir.

In Palau, on a hill overlooking the vineyards and the La Maddalena archipelago, the winery welcomes guests for tastings in an intimate and evocative setting, accompanied by a selection of local delicacies that enhance the identity of the region.

In the estate's vineyards, located between Arzachena and Palau, viticulture is a constant pursuit of balance between tradition and innovation. Each wine is born from deep respect for the land and the desire to enhance its most authentic characteristics, bringing to the glass the history and identity of Gallura.

The vines thrive in diverse areas, characterized by granitic weathered soils, poor and well-draining, which impart finesse and minerality to the wines. Some plots are nestled in the Mediterranean scrub, while others are overlooking the sea, exposed to the Mistral wind and the salt-laden air, elements that give our wines a distinctive profile and a pronounced freshness.

Vermentino is the heart of our production, interpreted in different styles that highlight its versatility. From lighter and vibrant expressions, with citrus and floral aromas, to more structured versions, where skin maceration and aging in stainless steel, concrete, and wood enhance complexity, adding depth and longevity.

Alongside Vermentino, Tenute Filigheddu produces IGT Colli del Limbara wines, an expression of the extraordinary biodiversity of the land. Their rosé, made from Cannonau, is an ode to freshness, offering notes of red berries and a well-balanced structure. Their red wine, on the other hand, is crafted from a blend of three native grape varieties, which together create a perfect balance of structure, elegance, and persistence, with velvety tannins and a lingering, enveloping finish.

Finally, Metodo Classico sparkling wine represents an exciting challenge: extended aging on the lees results in a fine and persistent perlage, accompanied by aromas of bread crust, citrus, and delicate floral nuances.

Over the years, Tenute Filigheddu's wines have received recognition and appreciation both nationally and internationally, reaffirming the unique identity we strive to express in every bottle.

Every sip tells the story of Gallura’s character: the wind, the land, the sea. A viticulture that respects the environment and enhances nature, giving life to wines that are authentic, expressive, and full of personality.

Each wine embodies a story of passion, respect for nature, and the pursuit of excellence, to offer a truly authentic and unforgettable experience.
