For a half century, Sicilia’s Cantine Sardus cooperative of producers have been crafting wines from indigenous grapes grown on remarkably old vines—many are eighty years old. A monovarietal expression of Carignano, Pater Is Solus is a round, rustic red whose opulent fruit glows in its setting of spice and flowers. A fabulous option for wine lovers new to southern reds, the Pater Is Solus is food-friendly and drinking now.

Sardus Pater is a 50 year old co-operative who work with some of the best producers throughout Sulcis. Because of such a long history in the area, their fruit comes from the best sources and top vineyards. Their base is set up in Sant'Antioco. All of Sardus Pater's fruit sources in Sant'Antioco were not affected by Phylloxera, therefore the ungrafted rootstock sits at the bottom of vines up to 80 years old.
