Heat, sun, the emerald-green sea, good-looking proud people, tasty cheese, fresh fish, toasted bread, honey and wine. But the land is not easy to farm. The paths are stony, there is a shortage of water, the soil is barren, everything has to be wrested from it with a great deal of effort. At a time and place where dozens of Sardinian wine-growers cleared the land of their vines, and were rewarded for this by the European Community, the five Meloni brothers rolled up their sleeves and got down to some hard work in the hinterland of Cagliari. They had realized that they could only run a successful business on Sardinia if they were able to produce high-quality wines. The Wine Estate From the 250 hectares of vineyards which they inherited from their grandfathers, they created one of the most modern wineries in Europe. The cellars are spick and span, modern and have been very well equipped. Since the Melonis are very attached to their home and to nature, they decided from the very beginning to grow their wine as naturally as possible using environmentally-friendly and ecological methods. The history of Meloni Vini began at the end of the 19th century, but the present has always been focused on the future. Thus tradition has always been combined with innovation. This is based on the latest research in the field of pest control without the use of chemicals, of irrigation and fertilization in order to produce wines of the very highest quality and in doing so to spare the environment as much as possible. Meloni Vini can look back on a long and successful history. As a producer of the most exquisite and well-known typical Sardinian wines, Vini Meloni sells these to the entire world. The winery and the vineyards, which cover about 250 hectares, are located in Selargius and the vicinity.
