Tenute Evaristiano

The Evaristiano winery, now known as Tenute Evaristiano, has a viticultural history with ancient roots. It was in the 1920s that the founder, Father Evaristo Madeddu, and his wife Beniamina Piredda established the Sacred Heart Company.

In those years, in Mandas, a small village in upper Marmilla, Evaristo Madeddu gathered around him a group of young people determined to dedicate their lives to serving the common good, where agricultural values represented a fundamental tool in their work.

The first members of the community had the opportunity to transfer their experience as winegrowers, gained in Monserrato and Sestu, areas highly suited to viticulture, to the Mandas region.

About Tenute Evaristiano

In the 1940s, this experience was repeated in the plains of Serramanna. Here, at the company’s operational headquarters, in addition to cultivating vineyards, wine production expanded, preceded by a grand reclamation project of a vast marshy area of about 70 hectares, making it cultivable and extraordinarily fertile.

Experience and study have strengthened the objectives of this productive enterprise. In fact, in the 1980s, an important collaboration began with the Provincial Agricultural Consortium of Villasor, establishing courses aimed at increasing innovation in wine production techniques while respecting regional traditions.

This way of operating became a reality in other areas of Sardinia where the company continues to operate: San Vero Milis, Donigala Fenughedu, Monastir, San Gavino. In these places, the value of agricultural tradition is still kept alive today, as the main tool for sustaining and fostering social growth in the Evaristian community.

Currently, the wine production headquarters is located in Putzu Idu, in the municipality of San Vero Milis (OR), situated on the western coast of Sardinia.
