Our wine comes from here. In the most wild and rugged part of the north–western part of Murgia, in a land where the history of mankind merges with the colors of nature.
Stone shapes the landscape, and is the undisputed queen of the environment, cluttered with stone walls, small houses, jazzi and rural churches. Sunny landscapes, however, are soften by aligned crops, fruit of the labor of man and of the austere beauty of a big lone oak. The contours of the hills are gentle, the autumn colors are warm, the small berries of the land north of Puglia are fragrant. Here our estate is located, just a few steps from the stunning harmonies of Castel del Monte, in the “Torre del Vento” district, where an ancient monastery of the eighteenth century, surrounded by 200 hectares of land, has been home to the heart of the company since 1948, the year in which the brothers Francesco and Domenico Liantonio bought the Torrevento Estate continuing the activity of producing wines that had seen its beginnings in 1920 in Palo del Colle.
Since then, a winemaking tradition of rural character has been handed down from generation to generation, and even today is the strength of our company.
In a rough and stony land, we recover and enhance native grape varieties suited to express the viticulture vocation of the whole territory of Puglia.
Large wine cellars carved into the rock of the Benedictine monastery preserve our precious wine, that ages in precious oak barrels and small barriques, according to the ancient local winemaking traditions, which today combine by more gentle winemaking techniques.
