Torleanzi embodies the passion for a unique territory, celebrating the rich culture of native Salento vines and a winemaking tradition passed down from father to son. Over two millennia ago, poets like Horace, Pliny, and Martial praised the harmonious and structured flavors of Salento wines. The landscape is dominated by the majestic 15th-century Torre Leanzi, which has stood as a guardian over the vineyards for centuries, inspiring the name "Torleanzi." At the heart of the estate are grape varieties such as Primitivo, Negroamaro, and Susumaniello, cultivated using ancient methods that honor the historical winemaking heritage of Salento. Every step of the production process, from harvest to bottle, is meticulously overseen by experts, ensuring that the art of winemaking is expressed with excellence in every bottle.

Near San Pietro Vernotico, a village in Salento, one finds the Vinicola Mediterranea winery. Never has a name been more suitable for a winery that exploits the best qualities and characteristics of the Mediterranean ecosystem. This is a zone that has a natural gift for cultivating vines, thanks to a warm sun and a sea breeze coming from the Adriatic sea, factors which create an ideal climate for wine-making. The winery was founded in 1997 by Giuseppe Marangio and Vito Epifani, both already expert in wine-making but for the first time determined to create their own business. Initially the production was exclusively loose wine which was though appreciated and marketed in all of Italy. In 2000 they began to bottle their wine, Negroamaro, Soraya and Donvito to name a few, and export worldwide. Also their vine varieties are numerous, Negroamaro is the most common then there are Malvasia di Brindisi, Primitivo and others (Montepulciano, Cabernet, Sangiovese and Chardonnay), that have attained the same quality as the indigenous varieties.
