Ours is a family tradition born in Castellana Grotte - south-east from the city of Bari - and rooted in Puglia, but with a strong commitment towards expanding across the national and international territory. Nestled in the fertile countryside, characterized by a climate that is conducive to making quality wines, our winery operates in the karst lands of the Murge territory, since 1939.
The gradual renewal that has occurred in recent years, the installation of innovative systems for monitoring grapes, and the aging of the finished product, are only the first steps of a company that is preparing itself for future challenges.
Today, Terrecarsiche1939 produces wines with Protected Geographical Indications (IGT) from Gioia del Colle and the Itria Valley, also overlooking the area of Castel del Monte, mainly emphasizing the autochthonous vineyards of Puglia that are by now very well-known. Read more
