The Great History of the Família Salton

Antonio Domenico Salton began the tradition of vine cultivation in 1878 when he left Italy and moved to Brazil for better opportunities. After vinifying informally for many years, Antonio got help from his sons, which later indulged in their father’s business. In 1910, the Salton Family acquired its formal certification for wine production, mainly creating sparkling wines and vermouth. Currently, the fourth generation of the Salton Family handles the estate’s operations with great respect for their forefathers.

Today, boasting a tradition of over a century, Família Salton Winery is recognized as one of the leading wineries in Brazil.
