A tribute to Sardinian tradition, Mirto Bianco '926 is born from a historic family recipe preserved by the Rau Distillery, founded in 1926. Produced artisanally, it is obtained from wild myrtle leaves handpicked in the untouched countryside of Sardinia. The slow hydroalcoholic infusion, free from added aromas, enhances the authenticity of the raw materials. With a herbaceous, fresh, and elegant taste, with balsamic and citrus notes, it is ideal as a natural digestive or paired with desserts and cheeses. Each bottle reflects the passion for the territory and the sustainable philosophy of the Rau family. A liqueur that tells almost a century of Sardinian craftsmanship.

Rau
Since 1926, Distilleria Rau has embodied passion, identity, and a strong family legacy. Born as a small artisanal lab for traditional Sardinian liqueurs, it has evolved into a modern company that still preserves its authentic roots. At the heart of Rau is the historic distillery, where Sardinian excellence takes shape daily: from the iconic Mirto RAU to the refined Gin GENESI, grappas, and herbal liqueurs—all crafted from local wild botanicals, hand-harvested and processed using family recipes.
Beyond distillation, Rau proudly established Tenuta l’Ariosa, a wine estate that captures the rugged soul of northwestern Sardinia. Here, native grapes are grown among sea breezes and stony soils, producing expressive wines with a strong territorial identity.
Completing the Rau universe is Pasticceria Tre Janas, where traditional Sardinian sweets become a form of art. Generational recipes and select ingredients come together to tell sweet, authentic stories of the island.
On Vino45, the trusted destination for curated Italian excellence, Rau’s creations bring the taste of Sardinia to your glass and table—genuine, rich, and unforgettable.

Taste: soft and balanced, with a fresh and vegetal entry. The herbaceous notes blend with balsamic hints and light perceptions of citrus, offering a pleasant bitter sensation on the finish. Medium-long persistence, clean and refined, which invites a second taste.
