Through traditional vines and a contemporary language, Turriga shares the rich history of the Argiolas family and their winemaking philosophy dating back to the 1980s. This ruby-red wine, born from the grapes of Serdiana, is the product of Antonio's tireless pursuit of innovation, which he shared with his sons Franco and Giuseppe. This village, the home of the winery and the heart of the family's entrepreneurial legacy, is a testament to their sacrifices and passions.

The Argiolas family's vision for their vineyards, inspired by a deep connection to the land and a global perspective, came to fruition when renowned winemaker Giacomo Tachis and his protege Mariano Murru joined as technical director. Innovating the traditional winemaking techniques, they expertly blended local varieties to create a new, harmonious and long-lasting wine for Sardinia.

In 1988, after extensive research, the first harvest was brought to the Winery for maceration and fermentation. A balanced blend of centuries-old Sardinian vines rooted in both limestone hills and sandy coasts, kissed by the sun and caressed by the wind, the grapes were swollen by the sea when harvested. After three years, Turriga was unveiled to experts, aged in French oak barriques for 18-24 months and refined in bottles for 12-14 months. Its excellence and award-wins helped elevate Sardinian red wine on a global scale, as journalist Benedetto Ferrara stated in Repubblica.

The Argiolas Turriga Isola dei Nuraghi, 750ml has been a consistently successful product for many years. Its ability to preserve and restore the unique and harmonious blend of aromas and scents showcases the rich origins and complex history of this wine. Its name, inspired by a marble statuette of the Mother Goddess found in the Turriga region, is a nod to the power of ancient civilizations and the genesis of this exceptional wine. This female idol, a representation of nature's creative force, is depicted in red on the bottle label and is now housed in the Cagliari Archaeological Museum. Take a sip and experience the fertile womb of the earth come to life in this meticulously crafted wine.
