About Winery and Wines

Every history has its first steps… Our own takes its start many years ago, thanks to an encounter between Franco and Lucia, our parents, our foundation, our… native vineyard. Without them, nothing of what we are relating here would exist. Thanks to their sacrifices, to their determination as entrepreneurs, to their farsightedness, we two today, Beniamino and Alberto, have been successful in bringing out the finest qualities in the traditional wines in this magnificent corner of Puglia. Grazie, Mom, grazie, Dad!

“The word “’wine-cellar” is quickly said, but the wine-cellar is a physical place, but it is a place in the soul as well. It is the place where everything is transformed… The wine-cellar is also team-work, sacrifice, sleepless nights… The wine-cellar is everything, but it is also nothing without the men and women who fill it with meaning…” This modern winemaking cellar, built in 2004, was the first cellar in Puglia to win ISO 14001 Environment certification.. Its architecture mirrors the local Masseria, or farming complex, built of tuff, that is traditional to the Murgia area. It was specifically built in a crafts-light industrial area in order to avoid “using up land” and this has in turn facilitated protection of the environment, safe working conditions, business connectivity, and commercial logistics. 2,400 sq.m. production space; 700 sq. m. for receiving grapes; 1,000 sq. m. of offices, laboratories, and tasting and meeting rooms; where we not only produce wine but host cultural events, shows, and professional training courses; the most up-to-date technology, to ensure sound, natural wines and to protect the health of the consumer.
