History

Salvatore Contini founded the company in 1898 at Cabras, making it the oldest winery on the island.

Salvatore won a gold medal for Vernaccia di Oristano at the 1912 Milan International Exposition.

Now in its fourth generation, the estate is led by Paolo Contini with his nephews Alessandro and Mauro; Vernaccia di Oristano remains the thread through its history.
