Viticulture in Puglia is history and at the same time innovation. Cultivation of wines started thousands of years ago, at the time of "Magna Grecia", to which the Greek origins of many names of Apulian grape varieties attests. Tradition continues through the presence of native varieties such as Negroamaro, Aglianico and Primitivo, both true expressions of a strong and extra-ordinary vital territory.
The production of high quality wines is related to recent steps towards innovation and creativity: substantial changes (i.e. Chardonnay and Cabernet) that express themselves in the "terroir" in a completely unique way.

Tormaresca is the expression of the above two souls. Character, personality and top quality are the characterustucs that Puglia trasmits to the native grape varieties. For this reason the Antinori family gave birth to Tormaresca in 1998 when they started investing in Puglia, considering it one of the most promising regions in Italy for the production of high quality wines with a strong territorial identity.

Torcicoda has been included among the best 100 wines in the world for 2020 by Wine Spectator. This is the second time this has happened in the last ten years and, as the only Apulian winery on the prestigious list, it fills us with pride to represent a region we love. Read more

Story The name Locone is inspired by the lake of the same name, an artificial reservoir located in the territory of Minervino Murge. Over the years, this place has become a beautiful hydrological basin inhabited by lacustrine fauna and flora, which is fundamental for giving life to a karst. white and 'poor' area such as the upper Murgia.
Climate Altitude: 250 m. a.s.l.
Soil composition Limestone and poor.
Fermentation temperature 26-28 °C
Wine making On arrival at the winery, the grapes were destemmed, gently crushed and transferred to the vinification vats, where alcoholic fermentation took place at a controlled temperature of 26-28 °C. Maceration was carried out by alternating punching down and brief pumping over, so as to have a gradual and balanced extraction that lasted for about ten days.
Aging At the end of alcoholic fermentation, the wine was transferred into oak barrels where malolactic fermentation and subsequent ageing took place.
