Winery | Salice Salentino DOP comes from the Apulia region, which makes up Italy's south-eastern corner. Located between two seas, the Adriatic Sea and the Ionian, the vineyards are situated on land where vines and olive trees flourish side by side. The vineyard's soils and the Mediterranean terroir play a fundamental role in the production of the wines. The climate is extreme, with droughts, frosts and the sirocco winds, all providing challenges to the talented winemakers. The vines are grown in soils that are mainly composed of reddish clay. The harvest takes place in the second half of September once the grapes have reached the optimal level of maturity. |
