About Silvio Carta

Silvio Carta is a family-run winery and distillery in Sardinia, founded in 1929. Known for its Vernaccia di Oristano wine and premium spirits, the company blends tradition with innovation, using high-quality Sardinian botanicals and a strong commitment to sustainability.

Silvio Carta, a renowned winery and distillery in Sardinia, is deeply rooted in the island's unique landscape and culture. Located in the Province of Oristano, the region is known for its pristine beaches, rugged mountains, and diverse flora, which contribute to the distinct, world-class qualities of its wines and spirits.

Founded by Silvio Carta in 1929, the company began with the creation of Vernaccia di Oristano wine, a local specialty that became highly sought after. In the 1970s, Silvio expanded into distilling, producing liqueurs and spirits that reflect Sardinia’s rich traditions and natural bounty. Today, under the leadership of Silvio’s son Elio and his nephews, the company operates from two distinct locations, with a historic plant in Baratili San Pietro focused on wine production and a modern facility in Zeddiani dedicated to spirits. Silvio Carta continues to prioritize sustainability and the use of high-quality Sardinian botanicals in crafting its renowned gins, vermouths, and liqueurs.

Their commitment to nature and the territory is encapsulated in their philosophy: "Harmony of nature. Wines, liqueurs, and spirits of Sardinia. Made in the Wild." - Silvio Carta
