Le vigneron

The Carpante domain consists of a power trio: Antonietta Carpante and his brother Damiano, now at the helm of the family estate of Usini, in the province of Sassari, in the north-west of Sardinia, joined in the adventure by Luca, the husband of Antonietta. Her family also had some vineyards on the island of Sant’Antioco, in the south-west of the island, where they grow the Carignano grape.

A younger generation that does not forget tradition and is dedicated to the culture of sometimes lesser known indigenous grape varieties outside the island, such as Cagnulari.
