About Sarda Wines

 

Sarda Wines was born from a life shaped by food, family, and Sardinia.

Founded by a chef raised in the restaurant world, Sarda Wines reflects a lifelong connection to hospitality and the table. Growing up in Wales in a family-run restaurant, time was spent observing kitchens, service, and the role food and wine play in bringing people together. That early exposure naturally led to a career in professional kitchens, followed by taking over the family restaurant and helping redefine modern Italian, and Sardinian cooking in Wales.

With a Sardinian father and Welsh mother, summers were always spent on the island, growing up bilingual and deeply connected to Sardinian culture. As Sardinian cuisine was introduced to the restaurant, so too were its wines, sparking a deeper fascination with the island’s indigenous grape varieties and distinctive styles.

Through importing wines directly for the restaurant, a close and lasting relationship was formed with Cantina di Dolianova, one of southern Sardinia’s most respected producers. During the COVID period, that relationship evolved into something more: the creation of Sarda Wines as an online platform to share these wines beyond the restaurant.

What began as a side project quickly grew into a focused mission. With the opportunity to work directly alongside producers and represent Sardinian wine more widely, the decision was made to relocate to Sardinia and dedicate fully to wine.

Today, Sarda Wines exists to champion authentic Sardinian wines. Selected with a chef’s perspective, rooted in food, place and tradition and to share a wine culture that deserves far greater recognition.
