Santadi
In the heart of the Sardinian island, among unspoiled landscapes and ancient traditions, the winery Santadi stands as a bastion of oenological excellence. Born as a cooperative, this establishment has managed to unite the efforts of local grape growers, transforming Carignano del Sulcis into a true legend. Nestled in the Sulcis territory, a sun-kissed and wind-kissed corner of Sardinia, Santadi has managed to enhance the peculiarities of a unique terroir, giving life to wines that reflect the richness and complexity of these lands.
The production philosophy of the winery is nourished by the balance between tradition and innovation, with a focus on sustainability and respect for the environment. The vineyards, cultivated with wisdom and love, are the undisputed realm of Carignano and Vermentino, two varieties that best express the Sardinian soul. Carignano, in particular, finds its ideal land in Sulcis, giving rise to wines of extraordinary richness and structure.
Among the labels that carry high the name of Santadi, Terre Brune stands out for its complexity and enveloping softness. A wine that tells stories of sun-drenched lands, with aromas ranging from fruity notes to spicy ones, in a hug that is both vigorous and delicate.

THE WINE
The 'Terre Brune' from Cantina Santadi, born with the 1984 vintage, is the first oaked red wine from Sardinia. It is an elegant and deep Carignano del Sulcis Superiore DOC that, with the addition of 5% bovaleddu, achieves complex and refined aromas and a full, velvety taste. It matures in new French oak barriques for 16-18 months, then ages in the bottle for 12 months.
THE COMPANY
In the heart of Sulcis, in the province of Carbonia-Iglesias, in the southwestern area of Sardinia, lies the Cantina Santadi.
Located in the small medieval town of Santadi, in lower Sulcis, surrounded by vineyards, olive trees, oaks, pines, and junipers, this enchanting area of Sardinia features coastal stretches with white beaches, hilly terrains, flat areas, and mountainous regions, characterized by a Mediterranean climate with granitic and calcareous soils rich in sediments.
Founded in 1960 as a cooperative by small grape producers with the aim of producing and marketing bulk wine, with the arrival of the new president Antonello Pilloni, Cantina Santadi takes flight, focusing entirely on innovation and the quality of its wines.
Starting with the renovation of the winery and the winemaking departments, they proceed to build and set up a modern laboratory, a purification system, and an innovative photovoltaic plant.
In the 1980s, Giacomo Tachis is called to lead the winery and production, passionately and determinedly guiding the winery to national and international success.
Thanks to his intervention, production focuses on high-quality wines with a strong territorial imprint, combining an innovative spirit with respect for tradition, favoring native grape varieties, particularly carignano, which is widely grown in the Sulcis area.
From carignano, the Santadi Terre Brune is born, with the 1984 vintage, the first oaked red wine of Sardinia, which rests in new fine-grained oak barriques for a period of 16-18 months and ages for 12 months in the bottle.
But at Cantina Santadi, in Sardinia, they do not stop at Carignano del Sulcis; they also cultivate other native and international grape varieties, such as cannonau di Sardegna, nasco, nuragus, vermentino, monica, and cabernet, merlot, chardonnay, and syrah, always aiming to offer high-quality wines with diverse organoleptic characteristics and different terroirs.
Thus, at Cantina Santadi, generous wines are born, balancing peasant tradition and innovation, territorial expression, and distinct personality, such as Rocca Rubia, Latinia, Cannonau di Sardegna Noras, and the Liquoroso Festa Noria Santadi, obtained from native red grapes.
