History

Ghirarda Fittiloghe 2021 comes from the heart of Barbagia, a mountainous area in Sardinia rich in winemaking tradition. This wine represents the connection between the territory and ancient vinification techniques handed down through generations.

Vineyard Philosophy

The Cannonau grapes are grown with natural and sustainable methods, respecting the calcareous soils and local biodiversity. Manual harvesting ensures careful selection of the best grapes.

Spontaneous fermentation with indigenous yeasts and 12 months aging in French oak barrels highlight the wine’s freshness and aromatic complexity.

VikeVike Winery: Deep Roots in Mamoiada, Heart of Barbagia

The History

The VikeVike Winery was born from the passion for wine and the determination of Simone Sedilesu, a young winemaker raised among his family’s vines. Located in Mamoiada, a picturesque village in the heart of Barbagia, Nuoro province, the winery is a tribute to love for the land and respect for its unique territory.
Simone’s story has deep roots, shaped by generations of winemakers: knowledge and gestures passed down from his grandfather and father. After earning his degree in oenology and gaining international experience, Simone founded his own winery in 2015. This is how VikeVike was born — a name that in the local dialect means “Look Look”, an invitation to discover, be surprised, and be moved.

Vineyard Philosophy

“Wine is made in the vineyard.” This is the principle behind every vintage at VikeVike. Simone manages 4.5 hectares of vineyards, all rented, producing about 25,000 bottles each year. This flexible approach allows him to explore different expressions of “Ghiradas”, the vineyard parcels of Mamoiada, capturing new nuances of the territory every year.
Farming is strictly organic and sustainable, respecting the environment and local biodiversity. Harvesting is done by hand, ensuring only perfectly ripe and healthy grapes reach the cellar. Indigenous varieties, such as Cannonau and the rare Granatza, tell the authentic story of Mamoiada.

Winemaking Approach

Each plot is vinified separately to preserve its unique character. In the cellar, intervention is kept to a minimum: spontaneous fermentations, native yeasts, and no forced manipulation. Here, wine is guided, not altered.
Even for special cuvées, like the pure Granatza or blends with carefully selected purchased grapes, the goal remains the same: to craft genuine wines, capable of surprising and narrating an extraordinary land.

VikeVike is an invitation to discover: to pause, look, and taste. A sincere tribute to the identity of Mamoiada and to the passion of those who work the vineyards and cellar every day to make this unique corner of Sardinia shine.
