Una piacevole scoperta

Rate: 4 out of 5 9/1/25
Bellissima scoperta alle porte del Salento nella di Taranto. Qui il Primitivo la fa da padrone e si esprime con tutta la sua elegante potenza. L'azienda è gestita da due sorelle che portano avanti una storia familiare fatta di lavoro e passione.
Il wine tour in cantina è stato esaustivo e molto interessante. Una struttura moderna con una barricaia molto curata e intrigante. Bella anche la sala degustazioni.
Vini di grande livello che vengono prodotti da uve primitivo, negroamaro, Fiano e bianco di Alessano.
Accoglienza in masseria semplice e ben strutturata. Ottima cena al ristorante della struttura con una cucina di qualità.
Un punto di riferimento per la zona.

Antica Masseria Jorche

Rate: 2 out of 5 6/1/25
I booked a combination of tour and dinner. I did not know this was on 2 different locations and that I need to wait between one another. I thought to taste the wines with the food, but it wasn't the case. Also the tour guide was new and wasn't enough knowledgeable.
I suggest to do the dinner in the winery and not in 2 different locations

Esperienza indimenticabile

Siamo stati accolti da Laura che è stata molto gentile, chiara ed esaustiva nel raccontarci e mostrarci la storia e l'attività della cantina Jorche, a conduzione tutta al femminile e familiare. Vini buonissimi e molto caratteristici. Abbiamo amato il design della cantina e la storia di ogni vino. Esperienza super consigliata!

We had a very good experience in the winery. I also suggest to book a dinner after the wine tour.

Incredible Venue, Dinner & Wine tour

Rate: 5 out of 5 9/1/24
Things we loved about our trip:
- The hotel is a beautiful restoration that preserves the history of the building.
- Generous pre-dinner aperitivo (Saturday night) held by one of the owners.
- Set-menu dinner - 4 delicious courses
- Wine tour was a perfect balance of technical insights into winemaking and warm/friendly storytelling taking you from the vineyard outside, to the barrels / bottling and even a look at the analysis lab (rare in wine tours). Great wines paired with local cheese/savoury bites over about 2 hours.
- Staff were super friendly and available for all requests.

Pleasant Wine tour, dinner & stay in Masseria

Rate: 4 out of 5 8/1/24
We were a family group of 6 adults , the wine tour was very good ; the lady given the tour was excellent and demonstrated great passion and knowledge ; the cellar is beautiful and wines we tasted very good ; it was a mixed group of both Italian and English speaking so tour was delivered in both , dinner in the restaurant was delightful; fabulous setting and delicious food. Restful stay in the Masseria. A couple of elements could do with improving ; the wine tour is a 3/4 min drive from the Masseria or a 20 min walk : participants must make own way there : this is not clear when booking . Check out was indicated to be at 12 midday however at 11am I received a message to say checkout was 10.30 and we needed to vacate , upon querying I was told a booking had just come in and rooms were now needed to be turned around ! Overall a great experience but communication could be improved .
For Guests staying overnight transport from the Masseria to winery would be a good option.

About Winery and Wines

Masseria Jorche has a rich and storied past, dating back to the late 17th century when it was established during the Spanish domination of Puglia under the feudal system. Originally, masserias like Jorche were self-sufficient agricultural hubs, complete with living quarters, animal shelters, and storage for food and agricultural tools. Jorche, one of the largest and most complete in the region, reached its height of prosperity at the end of the 19th century under Baron Bardoscia. The central building, the oldest part of the estate, was split between the upper floor, reserved for the landowner, and the lower floor, which housed the workers. At the start of the 20th century, Masseria Jorche became a symbol of the region's agricultural wealth and continues to stand as a monument to Puglia's historical and cultural heritage.

Near the sea, the ancient grape plots Pepe and Cirenaica form the heart of Masseria Jorche's vineyards, spread across twelve hectares of land ideal for viticulture. These family vineyards, deeply rooted in the area's winemaking history, produce limited quantities of high-quality grapes. An old “trullo” house on the property reflects the traditional farmers’ life, serving as a shelter during winter and a home during summer. Jorche cultivates primarily Primitivo, alongside other native Salento varieties like Negroamaro, Fiano Minutolo, and Bianco D’Alessano. The estate's commitment lies in preserving and revitalizing these indigenous grapes, ensuring that the rich winemaking heritage of the region continues to thrive.
