Cultivated in a wide valley surrounded by ancient olive groves and almond trees, this rosé captures the unique soul of Oliena, one of Sardinia’s historic wine territories. Rose petals, cherry and dried fruit form the wine’s aromatic signature, shaped by decomposed granite soils and significant day–night temperature variations. Its name, “Biriai,” evokes the local landscape and traditions of Nepente, a wine celebrated since the 1500s and famously named by poet Gabriele D’Annunzio.

Biriai Rosato presents an intense cherry-red colour with pink highlights. The bouquet shows rose petals and fresh cherry, supported by subtle dried-fruit nuances. On the palate, the wine is fresh, savoury, harmonious and lifted by a delicate mineral edge typical of Oliena’s granitic soils.

Pairing: Excellent with Sardinian cured meats, pecorino cheese, herb-seasoned vegetables, grilled fish, light pasta dishes and charcuterie.

Fratelli Puddu is a family-run winery rooted in the historic wine culture of Oliena, where Cannonau has shaped viticulture for generations. Founded in 1976, the estate has grown gradually from a small family venture into a modern winery that still works in close harmony with its land. Today, the Puddu family cultivates around 30 hectares of vineyards and an additional 15 hectares of olive groves, focusing on local varieties such as Cannonau, Nera di Oliena, and Bosana.

The winery lies at the foot of Monte Corrasi, the white-dolomite massif that dominates the Supramonte. This dramatic landscape—marked by Mediterranean scrub, wild herbs, and high biodiversity—creates a distinctive environment for grape growing. Here, decomposed granite soils with limestone elements and significant day–night temperature shifts shape wines with marked freshness, fine tannins, and aromatic concentration.

Cannonau remains the heart of the estate. In Oliena, this variety finds one of its most expressive forms, recognized through the DOC Cannonau di Sardegna – Nepente di Oliena subzone. Fratelli Puddu produces both traditional expressions and innovative interpretations, guided by a philosophy that combines respect for tradition, continuous quality improvement, and careful experimentation. Organic vineyard practices further emphasize the connection between the family and their land.

Fratelli Puddu continues to embody the agricultural heritage of Oliena, crafting wines that reflect the local terroir while looking confidently toward the future.

Vineyard & Production Details
Grape varieties Cannonau
Terroir Weathered granite
Production method

The grapes are harvested manually in crates to preserve freshness and integrity. Vines are roughly 15 years old and trained with the spurred cordon system.

Skin Contact & Fermentation

The first-run must remains in contact with the skins for approximately 12 hours to develop colour and delicate aromas. It is then separated and fermented at low temperature to retain vivid fruit and floral expression.

Ageing & Bottling

After fermentation, the wine rests briefly in stainless-steel tanks before bottling to maintain crispness, minerality and aromatic precision.

🍇 Selection

At Tresmundi, every wine is chosen with the utmost care – guided by the expertise of a certified wine professional with WSET Level 2. With deep knowledge of viticulture, winemaking, and tasting, we ensure that every bottle in our collection meets the highest standards of quality, balance, and character.

We focus on wines that tell a story – whether it’s a hidden gem from a small family estate or a timeless classic from a renowned region. What we offer is more than a drink: it’s an experience.

Food and wine are two of our greatest passions. They are among the richest and most rewarding pleasures in life – and we indulge in them as often as possible. When selecting our producers, we consider not only taste, appearance, or awards, but also their values, traditions, and sense of place. Above all, we value passion and respect for nature and craftsmanship. We make sure that each producer’s philosophy and vision are reflected in every drop.

Our focus lies on small, family-run wineries that work with dedication and heart. Every wine has a story worth telling. You won’t find these bottles in supermarkets – nor in the vast catalogs of large online retailers. Our wines, and the stories they tell, are meant to be discovered and appreciated.

🏡 Storage

For us, every wine tasting is a sensual experience. Proper storage therefore plays a crucial role in preserving quality.

All wines in our selection at Tresmundi are kept in a specially designed wine cellar in Hamburg, maintained with controlled temperature, humidity, and sound insulation.

Bottles are stored horizontally and away from light sources, ensuring the cork remains in contact with the wine to prevent unwanted oxidation. This careful process allows each wine to develop beautifully and reach you in perfect condition.

📦 Delivery

Our wines are shipped in certified DHL packaging designed specifically for safe wine transport (for wine orders only). If your order includes other products, we wrap each bottle securely in bubble wrap to minimize the risk of breakage.
