Claudio's oenological history began in 2005 with the decision to abandon his pharmaceutical career in the United States to take on the role of the winemaker. It is a return to his origins, to the Salento of his childhood, to the ritual of the harvest with his grandparents, but also a tribute to his lifelong passion for great wines. Today Claudio's daughter Alessandra has returned to his side to lead the winery in its new chapter. Perched on a volcanic hill surrounded by vineyards and woods, the winery collects the legacy of a historical area and projects it into the future with a contemporary vision and language. The grapes come from selected plots in the most suitable areas and are grown up to 700 meters above sea level, where the strong temperature range enhances its aroma. The soil is varied between clayey, calcareous, sandy and with ashes from Vesuvius.
Floral, acacia, chamomile as well as a faint vein of mandarin, white pulp fruit, with a background of hazelnut and mineral and smoky notes. On the palate it is rich in fruit and balanced, a seductive acidity refreshes the palate, offering a long and vibrant finish.
