Agripunica

Falstaff Wine Guide Italy 2026

The Agripunica winery was founded in 2002 in south-west Sardinia, inspired by the vision of the renowned and famous oenologist Giacomo Tachis to create a great Sardinian wine in a modern style. Tachis convinced Marchese Incisa della Rocchetta, the Tuscan Sassicaia producer, and the president of Cantina Santadi Pilloni to embark on this new adventure in Sardinia. Two decades later, Agripunica owns 70 hectares of vineyards in the Sulcis region and produces around 300,000 bottles a year, split between the three wines Barrua, Montessu and Samas.

Falstaff Wine Guide Italy 2024

The AgriPunica winery was founded in 2002 thanks to the intuition of the famous oenologist Giacomo Tachis to create an iconic Sardinian wine from Carignano grapes combined with small proportions of French varieties. Tachis persuaded the other two founding fathers of the company, Antonello Pilloni and Marchese Incisa Della Rocchetta, to set up this Sardinian-Tuscan joint venture, which today has 70 hectares of its own vineyards. The grapes for the three wines produced, "Barrua", "Montessu" and "Samas", come from these vineyards.
