Today we celebrate the 15 harvests of this wine that time has led to become a renowned expression of Primitivo Salentino in its Brindisi version: the most elegant, more structured and austere. Through the years, Visellio, harvest after harvest, selecting only the best vintages, has written its own story, that of Tenute Rubino’s and also...

Proximity to the sea and constant ventilation, together with its sandy soils all concur in making this estate...

Varietal typicality and modern viticulture: this combination is the key to success. “Puglia is the clicking song of summer cicadas, the pungent smell of red earth and dry hay, the flickering shadows of wispy olive branches and the incandescent light that reflects off whitewashed villages”, with this arresting image Monica Larner, wine journalist and Italian reviewer for The Wine Advocate, introduces her survey...
