The winemaking activity dates to the second half of the 19th century when Commander Vincenzo De Marco successfully started the production and marketing of bulk wines in France and Tuscany.

The company born from the union of the lands of Professor Donato Vallone with those given as a dowry by Commendatore De Marco to his daughter Maria: the marriage deed of 1934 establishes the merger of two estates, the Tenuta Flaminio of Brindisi with the Tenuta Iore of San Pancrazio Salentino. Later, at the end of the 1960s, the splendid Castel Serranova estate was added. Read more

Story The name of the wine comes from the "Graticciaia", the fruit cellar where the light mats made of woven reeds and wicker are placed.
Climate Exposure: North - South.
Soil composition Calcareous - clayey.
Cultivation system Alberello
Harvest Careful selection of Negroamaro clusters from old vines bred as alberello. The grapes are first brought to maturity, then left to dry on racks.
Wine making When the drying is complete, the grapes are processed into wine. The physiological processes that take place in the grapes and the fermentation of the must in late autumn, when the ambient temperature is lower, lead to an evolution that is completely different from traditional vinification. The temperature of the must is strictly regulated throughout the slow fermentation process and the first stage of maturation is carried out in small wooden barrels.
Aging Ageing is carried out in small wooden barrels.Size: Pieces. Origin: Allier - Never. time: 1 year approx.
