Discover Malvasia di Bosa doc wine in the vineyard of Emidio Oggianu

Malvasia di Bosa
in the vineyard of Emidio Oggianu
Featured on Savor Sardinia
Sardinia is not, among the Italian regions, the largest producer of wine, but here the culture of the vine and wine is an invaluable asset, intimately tied to our culture and our traditions.
In this sense, the production of Malvasia di Bosa is emblematic, which has always contributed to the development of the wine sector of the island, and still continues to do so.
To tell this fascinating culture, we present a small-scale production of high quality, carried out with great love and sacrifice, for the pure joy of preserving their own heritage. We go to visit the vineyard and the cellar of Emidio Oggianu, a passionate and lively man of eighty, who has dedicated his life to cultivate and pass on the ancient art of the production of this noble wine, which is one of the smallest but most awarded DOC in Italy.
To understand the excellence achieved by this wine, you have to know people like Mr. Emidio and the significance of the wine to the social context of this corner of Sardinia: a precious symbol of hospitality, traditional festivals and special occasions, where to donate relatives and friends a distillation of his affection for this land.
“Surely if we let more bunches of grapes in the plant and we passed less time in the vineyard and in the cellar would be much easier but certainly we will be less satisfied” – Emidio Oggianu
