Vineyards

Is Crabilis
Is Crabilis is the name of a sandy limestone hill entirely covered with vines. The name, translated from the Sardinian language indicates that, in the past, perhaps there was a goat shelter, although probably; in antiquity; in the Neolithic era, It was the site of a village. the witnesses are some of the tools that were found on the summit of the hill. The clayey limestone of its base gradually become more loose towards the summit with layers of limestone. From its summit, at about 250 meters above sea level it dominates the valley and has an amazing view of the Seven Brothers. The highest peaks in the southern Sardinia. In this estate we grow Carignano, Vermentino, Malvasia Sarda, Monica, Cannonau and Nuragus.
