Puglia is the organic wine made only with Nero di Troia grapes. It is characterized by a pink color with onion skin nuances, at the nose it offers splendid sensations of strawberry and other small red fruits. On the palate it impresses with its sapidity, aromatic persistence and a right balance between freshness and soft notes.

Raffaele di Tuccio bought this run-down farmhouse dating back to the 1700’s in 1985 and over the past 30 years has worked tirelessly with his wife, Antonia, and son, Luigi, to bring the property back to life.
In 1993, Raffaele was so inspired by the concept of sustainable, organic viticulture that he set about immediately to converting his 40ha of land to organics. The vineyards are influenced by the cooling Tramontana wind from the north, and warming Scirocco wind from the south, giving ideal conditions for their dedication to organic viticulture and lending crispness and depth to the wines. Upon tasting, the most striking element is the crisp and refreshing nature of the acidity, something that it not the norm for wines of this region.
Very sadly Raffaele passed away in late 2020, the care of the farm and vineyards are now in the hands of Antonia and Luigi.
