The soil is rich with limestone,skeleton, also with organic substance and full of mineral elements thatdetermine the success of the wines. Mesa cultivates mainly the famous Carignano,Vermentino and Cannonau. Mesa wine production is highly specializedwith only a small production, maximum 40-50 to 100 quintals per hectare.
