Capo Zafferano

Capo Zafferano is a famous promontory, with a great view of gulf with turquoise water and secular white lighthouse, so characteristic that we wanted it to represent the best expression of South Italy wines, in particular Puglia wines: a wine region with a unique macro-climate, being enclosed between three seas, where grapes have been cultivating and vinifacted for more than 3000 years. The wines from Puglia have a sweet and juicy fruit, with a soft and enveloping body, but always characterized by the typical saltiness of the wine-growing areas that are close to the sea. At the top of this production stand out the red wines produced by “appassimento”, the drying of grapes: a technique used in that area since the ancient Romans, which allows a slight dehydration of the bunches, concentrating their organoleptic qualities and enhancing wine aromas.
