can not understand a wine, oil, any of the fruits of the earth, without understanding what is the area where he was born. Not at least until the end. Here then is that Maurice Altea brings us to the heart of wine Serdiana: the Romanesque church of Santa Maria di Sibiola. From the roof of the building that was the Benedictine Marseilles eye dominates the low hills of this corner of Sardinia, Cagliari Province, just north of the capital: old vineyards that seem woods, edges of wild beauty, rugged and low screws, gnarled, wild plants and perfumes, flavorings pungent, thistle, gorse, Mediterranean, and there the saltwater marsh on staineddu, where they rely on migratory birds, where the flying knight of Italy and the flamingo ... salt, which covers the grapes feel taste the air, outstanding environment, as they pass before my eyes the colors of the wind. Born here, in quiet corners of nature, enveloping the wines Illotto Altea, Altea and Maurizio Adele Illotto, agronomist by profession, vocation for tenants. About six thousand bottles produced from grapes strictly organic wines true, peasants. Only two labels: Altea Altea white and red, both IGT Sibiola, tiny wine area of \u200b\u200bthe island. The red blend of noble grape varieties, the first of Monica, which Maurizio Altea also has a vineyard of four decades, almost a multicolored wood screws, for the most elegant grape of Sardinia.

As that produced by Adele Illotto centenarians olive, the other half of the winery: the olive grove Bosana, Tonda and Semidana, looks like a garden with stone walls and prickly pears and grass kept clean by the grazing of flocks and horses. The oil is very good: pungent fresh grass, spicy artichoke, green with reflections of gold, very typical. Sardinian beautifully as a song of Elena Ledda.
