Cantina Jankara

Jankara was founded in 2006 by Renato and Angela Spanu, who initially acquired eight hectares of land in Vena di San Leonardo near Sant’Antonio di Gallura; in 2008, the first four hectares there were planted with Vermentino. Today, the estate also tends around two hectares of vines above Mamoiada. The grapes are harvested by hand, trained using Guyot and cordon systems, and restricted to low yields of around one kilogram per vine. In the cellar, Jankara works with steel tanks and French oak; its consulting oenologist is Gianni Menotti.
