From mother to vineyard


The winery

The story of this winery is deeply connected to that of its founder, #antonellacorda. Grew up among the vineyards in a family of winegrowers since generations.

Her mother gave her a love for the land and her father instilled in her a passion for the job. Antonella became an agronomist specialized in wine-making management and inherited the family tradition in 2010.

She took the winery’s reins in hand, transforming it into an ambitious and innovative project that did honor to its past: the creation of a boutique winery capable of producing fine Sardinian wines worthy of representing Sardinia around the world.

The vineyards #antonellacorda, mainly located within the Municipality of Serdiana, extend over 15 hectares. The farm includes further lands, of which 12 hectares planted with local olives variety the Tonda di Cagliari and the Pitze Carroga and others left open for crop rotation, for a total of 40 hectares.

The family

Antonella Corda comes from a family that have been into the wine industry for five generations. She frequented the family farm since she was a girl, embracing the passion and experience of her parents and grandparents.

Her grandfather is the winemaker pioneer Antonio Argiolas, the first vintner to import modern winemaking technology into his wine cellar in Sardinia after a viticulture trip to California and Argentina.

As a good observant and curious about this field, Antonella grew up and became a woman, choosing to take care of the land and the family wine. After graduating in Agricultural Sciences and Technology at the University of Sassari, she specialised in vine-wine system management in the north of Italy (Trentino Alto Adige) with a master qualification from the Edmund Mach foundation.

When in 2010 Antonella returned to Sardinia, she decided to make the most of her studies and expertise, devoting her entire life to the wine production. Dedication to the work, love for the land, and respect for the craft, with the awareness that if you want to improve, then you must be ready to embrace the world.

These values provide the foundation for the work of a family that has made the passion for wine its #lifestyle. These values are deeply rooted in the productive processes and in the company choices reflected in the character of the wines themselves: authentic, refined, and destined to success in the most demanding markets.
