Masseria Altemura is owned by one of the most prominent vine- growers and wine producers in Italy, the Zonin family.

Since 1821, seven generations have dedicated their craftmanship to deliver continued excellence in wine production. Masseria Altemura lies in the heart of the Salento Peninsula, almost equidistant from Puglia’s two seas: the Ionian (20 km) and the Adriatic (16 km), in the famous wine area of Primitivo di Manduria. A unique location where the breezes of two seas meet and contribute to the creation of an extraordinary microclimate. Today the estate extends for 270 ha and encompasses the ancient masseria, the winery, the vineyards and the olive trees in one single unit.

This collection is a summation of the climate of this area, as well as the values and expertise of the vineyards.

Collection includes:

3 x Masseria Altemura Àpulo Salento IGT Fiano 2023 (Italy)

Bright straw yellow with slight greenish reflections. A broad bouquet that opens with notes of peach, grapefruit and lemon peel, followed by hints of orange blossom, jasmine and lemon balm. A very pleasurable mouthfeel, lively, fresh and intensely aromatic. The fruity and floral notes on the nose follow through perfectly on the palate.

Food Pairing: Excellent as an aperitif, it is a white that can pleasantly accompany an entire meal. Particularly suited to dishes made with shellfish, pasta with delicate sauces, fish or grilled white meat.

Alc: 12.5%

3 x Masseria Altemura Àpulo Salento IGT Primitivo 2022 (Italy)

Deep red, heightened by brilliant purple reflections. Intense notes of red fruit, and plum and black cherry jam, accompanied by hints of vanilla and cinnamon. Soft and enveloping on the palate, the flavour is intense and persistent, invigorated by satisfying acidity.

Food Pairing: A perfect match with flavoursome first courses, roast or grilled red meats and mild cheeses.
