Li Duni Winery is nestled in the picturesque commune of Badesi, Sardinia, where gentle winds and warm sunshine nurture its vineyards. The estate is renowned for cultivating indigenous grape varieties that have thrived in the Sardinian wine region for generations, resulting in wines with unique and exceptional flavors.
Founded in 2003, Li Duni Winery honors centuries-old winemaking traditions while embracing modern techniques. The winery aims to preserve the connection between ancient viticulture practices and contemporary oenological knowledge. After the devastation of Phylloxera in the late 1800s, the region's vineyards slowly recovered, and today, the estate produces around 40,000 bottles of red, white, rosé, and sparkling wines, all proudly bearing DOCG, DOC, and IGT designations.
Spanning 20 hectares, the estate cultivates a diverse range of high-quality grapes, including Vermentino, Cannonau, Bovale Sardo, and Caricagiola. These ungrafted vines (Piedefranco) yield approximately 650 hectoliters of juice each year. The grapes are hand-harvested to ensure that only the finest berries are selected for vinification in the cellar.
Li Duni's wine cellar, located near the main building, features a blend of modern and traditional winemaking equipment. Inside, barrels and barriques are neatly arranged, providing an ideal environment for aging and refining their exquisite wines. The winery is not only a place for wine production but also a hub of knowledge for visitors interested in the art of winemaking.

Write a reviewBeautiful place, we stopped by this winery to take some bottles to bring home at the end of our vacation. Even though we didn't book a tasting, we were offered a taste of their wines by a very knowledgeable and professional girl, we liked the wine a lot and in the end we decided to take 6 bottles.

Their sparkling wines ( both rosé and brut) are one of the best in the area. We went there twice, once for a wine tasting experience with music (organised on Thursdays) and once for an aperitif. Each time was great - the staff is friendly and well-prepared, they serve high quality local products and there is a beautiful terrace with a sea view.

I had the pleasure of attending a wine tasting in an enchanting location. The atmosphere was just perfect, with a breathtaking view and a welcoming environment that made the experience even more special. The wines were exceptional, well structured and of great character. Each sip was a discovery with complex notes and perfect balance. It is clear that there is great passion and expertise behind each bottle. The accompaniment of a platter of high quality cold cuts and cheeses completed the experience in a sublime way. The aromas harmonized perfectly with the wines, creating a harmony of tastes that delighted the palate. I highly recommend this experience to all wine lovers. An unmissable opportunity to discover exceptional wines in a dream location. 🍷✨
