100% Cagnulari, a mediterranean grape variety typical of Sardinia.

The gorgeous purple-red colour is the first thing you notice. Then comes the scent, it’s spicey yet musky, which is in contrast to the freshness on the pallet. Only empowered by the mix of sand and limestone in the soil, creating a wine that is playful and bold yet light. This wine is a great pair to spicey food that is full of fresh and crunchy veggies. Totally characteristic of these native Sardinian grapes, they are so easy to drink and thoroughly enjoyable.

The story of Silvio Carta is such a romantic story, since 1950. The grandfather himself, Silvio Carta founded the winery at Baratili San Pietro, to the west of Sardinia, and set out to create the most extraordinary wine from a native grape and that’s how the Vernaccia di Oristano was born. Seventy years later, the family are still creating this wine with all the love and passion of the family. This wine was the catalyst that paved the way for the rest of the delicious wines and spirits that Silvio Carta make.
