Winery | The Bocca di Lupo estate is located in the northern Puglian countryside of Minervino Murge, in the DOC region of Castel del Monte, an area well known for its wild beauty. The vines grow at about 300 meters above sea level in the Murgia, an area with challenging climatic conditions and soils low in nutrients, meaning patient hard work is required to produce wines that are elegant, lively, and with well-defined precision. Certified organic winemaking is not simply a final objective but an opportunity. Local varietals like Aglianico, Nero di Troia and Fiano Pugliese represent the heart of the Castel del Monte agronomic history. They have worked to an unrivalled finesse since Antinori’s first investment in the region in the late 1990s. |
