Description
2011: The course of the spring - summer season in Apulia was characterised by two distinct profiles: - the first between March and July, with frequent but not abundant rainfall allowed the plants' water reserves to be replenished; - the second (August - September), hot and dry, allowed optimal ripening, sugar concentration and richness of the grapes. The cold vintage climatic course that characterised the pre-harvest period led to the maintenance of a consistent acidity in the grapes. The climatic course of a hot year (hot and dry) that characterised the August-September period did not induce excessive stress on the plants, thanks to the good water reserves accumulated in the spring and the vegetative-productive balance of our vineyards

The vision behind the Tormaresca winery was to produce top quality wines from Apulia’s indigenous grape varieties: Primitivo, Negroamaro and Fiano Pugliese. Read more
