Terresicci is Cantina di Dolianova’s expression of Barbera Sarda — a traditional Sardinian grape variety that, despite its name, is genetically distinct from the Barbera more commonly associated with northern Italy.
Grown in vineyards across southern Sardinia, Barbera Sarda produces wines with more structure and depth than its northern namesake, shaped by the island’s warm Mediterranean climate. Terresicci reflects this character beautifully, offering a red wine that is fuller-bodied and more structured, while remaining balanced and food-friendly.
On the nose, it shows aromas of ripe red and dark berries, gentle spice and subtle earthy notes. The palate is medium-full bodied with rounded tannins, balanced acidity and a warm, persistent finish. Expressive without being heavy, it’s a wine that pairs naturally with hearty dishes and relaxed meals alike.
A distinctive Sardinian red that rewards those looking for depth, authenticity and a sense of place.
Winemaking & Production
The grapes are fermented using traditional red winemaking methods, with careful extraction to build structure while maintaining balance. The wine is then refined to highlight the natural character of Barbera Sarda, resulting in a harmonious and approachable style.
Why Cantina di Dolianova?
