Puglia

The oenological history of Puglia dates back to the seventh century BC, with the Greek civilization, and its production has always represented a staple in oenology not only in Italy, but internationally.
To date, Puglia is experiencing a moment of great popularity thanks to the qualitative growth achieved in recent years by its wines, obtained from indigenous grapes with enormous potential, including Negroamaro and Uva di Troia, vines cultivated already in classical times and Primitivo, the main grape variety which finds its maximum expression in the Manduria region, from which we obtain Primitivo di Manduria Mandus di Pietra Pura, Primitivo di Manduria Sessantanni Old Vines of San Marzano or Villa Santera di Leone de Castris.

The most representative wines of the region are reds and rosés, including Leone de Castris' Salento Five Roses Anniversario , Tenuta Potenti's Salento Rosato Rosapotenti . However, there is no shortage of interesting white wines, made from native grapes such as Verdeca at the base of Puglia Verdeca Talò di San Marzano. Among the sunniest regions of Italy, Puglia enjoys a particularly favorable climate which is strongly affected by the beneficial influence of the sea which gives the wines freshness, structure and balance.

Today Puglia has 4 DOCGs, 28 DOC areas and 6 IGTs, including Puglia and Salento, home of the renowned companies San Marzano, Leone de Castris and many others, among which Vespa Vignaioli for Passion with Primitivo di Manduria.
