The Tenute Soletta winery was founded in 1996 in Florinas, in the northwest of Sardinia, by the winemaker with a long family tradition, Umberto Soletta.
The winery's vineyards extend over 10 hectares between the towns of Florinas and Codrongianos, in the province of Sassari. With these vineyards, Tenute Soletta currently produces 70,000 bottles, crafting wines with clear Mediterranean characteristics.
Umberto Soletta is also a winemaker of another era. In every process, he strives to respect the raw material as much as possible, using pump-overs and delestage for red wines fermented with the skins, and continuous batonage during aging.
Their wines are certified under the DOC Cannonau di Sardegna, DOC Vermentino di Sardegna, and IGT Isola dei Nuraghi.
The grape varieties used by Tenute Soletta include the native cannonau, vermentino, and moscato, as well as the international varieties incontro, manzoni, and cabernet sauvignon.
The intervention in the vineyard by this winery is very limited, with agronomic work that significantly reduces the use of chemical products. This aligns with Soletta's philosophy of respecting and protecting the environment with a sustainable ecological footprint.
With a philosophy based on the utmost respect for nature, every action, whether in the vineyard or in the winery, is carried out in pursuit of a “circular economy.” For Umberto Soletta, “treating the land with love and respect rewards me with excellent fruits.”
