The story of Tenute Rubino is the story of love for one's land and its rediscovery. The sun of Apulia, the traditions of Salento reinterpreted with a vibrant entrepreneurial spirit passed on from father to a son. A project which saw the light in the early 1980s, in a farm established by Tommaso Rubino, the first to recognize the modern viticultural potential of a territory with such an important past. His son Luigi, together with his wife Romina in all aspects of marketing and communication, has taken on this entrepreneurial legacy, bringing all his passion to the family company and making it an ambassador of Apulian viticulture in the world.

It needs structured dishes such as pappardelle with meat sauce, grilled or roasted meat. Very good the match with seasoned cheeses such as Canestrato Pugliese DOP.
