Bresca Dorada –
Handicrafts and wild herbs from southwest Sardinia
Since 1989, Bresca Dorada has stood for what Sardinia tastes like in a glass: tart and fruity digestifs made from what the island naturally provides. At the foot of Monte Liuru in the southwest of the island, Paolo Melis and Enrico Diana gather myrtle berries, prickly pears, wild fennel blossoms, and rosemary – along with citrus fruits from the area around Muravera, known for its mild coastal climate.
The approach is consistent: only what nature provides in abundance is processed. No artificial flavors, no concentrates – instead, slow maceration and a craft that preserves the unique characteristics of each fruit. The Mirto di Sardegna from Bresca Dorada embodies this philosophy directly in the glass: deep violet, with aromas of ripe myrtle berries, a hint of juniper, and a long, slightly bitter finish.
Anyone familiar with Sardinian cuisine knows that a glass of Mirto after the meal is as essential as the bread before. Bresca Dorada has been providing the perfect example for over three decades – natural, regionally rooted, and crafted with meticulous precision.
