Producer of one of Puglia’s few DOCGs, as well as making high-quality examples of Puglia’s most famous vinous export, this leading producer is well-versed in producing fascinating whites from Fiano and Verdeca. It is with the poetically titled Elegia that the extraordinary levels of quality come to light.
