Winegrowers in Apulia

Our winery is located in Ruvo di Puglia, in the inland of the province of Bari, surrounded by olive groves and vineyards. Our town is always been strictly linked to viticulture and wine production. Just think of that archaeological finds prove that Ruvo used to be an active and florid centre, between the IV and the III century b.C. Also the first business relationships with Magna Grecia, Etruria and Greece date back to that time.
Very likely the first grapevines as well as the first experiences concerning winemaking arrived in that period too. During the Roman Empire it became at first a military station and eventually municipium, while, after the fall of the Roman Empire, it was dominated by Byzantines, Saracens and Normans.
In the following years, after the Aragonese and French domination, Ruvo was governed by the Earl Carafa and obtained freedom in 1806. Yet, Ruvo di Puglia is not only history, but also art, represented by the imposing Cathedral, the National Museum Jatta, the municipal art gallery and Castel del Monte near Andria.

Our winegrowers

Our factory is surrounded by vineyards bred back to free-standing espalier , olive groves and orchards. Our grapes come only from autochthonous grapes such as Nero di Troia and Montepulciano for red grapes, Bombino, Malvasia, Greco and Minutolo for white grapes. The entire production is selected, vinified and bottled in our underground premises. The grapes are selected bunch by bunch on the plant, put in crates and only the best become our wines.
We have always proudly underlined, during our life, our origins. Therefore we define ourselves not as entrepreneurs but as a family of winegrowers. In this respect we have been always convinced that top wine is made in the vineyards, simply with care, devotion, experience and knowledge. As winegrowers we want that our wine lovers first see our job in the vineyard and then to visit our cellars. The personal relationship with each of our customers is paramount to our daily commitment. It is for them that we adorn our locations, create events and wine tastings. The direct relationship with them is our lifeblood.
