The golden place

Tenute Dettori is located in the northern Sardinian wine region Romangia, being a highly fertile area and rich historically, it is also called the golden place -Logudoro in Sardinian dialect. Not only the lucky vines thrive from the healthy soil but they also have the best dreamy view, overlooking the Gulf of Asinara.

The vineyard has been naturally bio-dynamic basically since time unknown. Fig and olive trees, domestic and wild animals take care of a fertile soil. Even foxes and wild boars are regular visitors! They do not use any chemicals or additives apart from a small amount of sulphur in the Renosu line. There is no filtration or fining carried, either.

It all couldn’t get any more eco-friendly, as they use the lightest bottles possiblerecycled materials for packaging and reduce merchandising to the minimum. “They are not wines that are slaves to business logic and marketing strategies.” It’s pure “squeezed fermented grape juice”.

The philosophy

“The wines are what they have to be and not what you want them to be.” A strong belief that goes against industrial, conventional wine production. The same grape variety coming from different plots can be so different from one another and this is the reason why they decided to not be part of the DOC system. They opted more for the IGT classification which categorised high quality wines only based on location.

Don’t expect to find the Demeter logo on their bottles either, even though they farm biodyamically for centuries, their wines should be chosen for their taste and philosophy and for the certifications.

The wines

The local grapes are harvested by hand, de-stemmed but not crushed and fermented in big cement vats. They do not use barriques to mature their wines they rather rest in small cement tanks until bottling.

The Renosu Bianco and Renosu Rosso are cuvées coming from their younger vines, making these two their fun wines. The red is often juicyrichfruity with berries aroma, low in acidity and tannins, you can enjoy this wine also chilled. The white one is super aromatic, full of amazing flavour, sometimes even floral and the low amount of acidity makes it the best wine to bring to any party.

The Badde Nigolosu line were designed to celebrate and dedicate individual vineyard to one grape variety and one wine. Cannonau (Dettori Rosso, Tenores & Tuderi), Monica (Chimbanta) and Pascale (Ottomarzo) are the red grape varieties. The wines are complexpowerfulrichdeep and their outstanding flavours go from forest fruits to tobacco, from plums to olives, to cinnamon and white pepper and so on.
Their only orange wine, Dettori Bianco, is a Vermentino and it’s mind blowingaromaticpowerful with great balance between acidity and tannins. Last but not least is the sweet Moscadeddu made from Moscato grapes. The crazy orange sweet wine varies from year to year but it is always a pleasure to your senses.
