Bentu Luna
Bentu Luna is a brand-new project, 2019 being the first vintage. CEO Gian Matteo Baldi (formerly of Castello di Cigognola and Sella & Mosca), described the project as being run more like an “academy” than a typical winery, with a team of specialized individuals responsible for each of the primary roles. The winery is located in the center of the island, in Neoneli, just outside of the lesser-known Mandrolisai DOC, where most of the vineyards are. The winery boasts a large selection of native old vines, some of them dating back more than a century. The vineyards, located on a plateau with elevations ranging from 350 to 700 meters, contain a mix of soils, from weathered granite to sandy clay, and all the viticulture is carried out by hand. Vineyard practices focus on sustainable farming (versus biodynamic or organic). In the winery, whole bunches are left intact and undergo spontaneous fermentation. The wines are refined in a combination of neutral vessels, including steel, concrete and wood. This growing project continues to expand with new vineyards and into different parts of the island. Baldi also expressed a desire to add a Vernaccia di Oristano to the portfolio in the near future. This inaugural vintage was a pleasure to taste through. I have high hopes for what may be possible here.
