The rosè wines have always been a firm point for the oenological renaissance of Puglia.

All grape varieties have their own story and primitivo is no exception: from Gioia del Colle it travelled to Manduria and then to Guagnano. Each Primitivo has different characteristics: DieciAnni Primitivo is an elegant and opulent wine. It has a dense red colour with intense violet tints. Voluptuous and persistent on the nose with a penetrating and intriguing perfume of violet. Soft tannins enhance the hints of liquorice, black cherry and plum.
If you are looking for tradition and respect for the territory, this reserve wine will not betray your expectations. It is a wine with an austere and unique character obtained from ancient negroamaro “Alberelli”. Particularly bright red and good consistency. Notes of tobacco, nuts and Mediterranean herbs on the nose. Soft tannins and balsamic notes on the palate. Only 25 magnum bottles (of the vintage 2006) were produced and all the bottles have their own certificate of authenticity.
WHAT DOES IT CONSIST OF?
Throughout the whole year, the winery offers the tasting of its wines in unusual and, at the same time, original contexts. Tasting the wines during a spectacular sunset in the vineyards, a bachelorette wine tasting party, a team building experience organized for the employees and much more! This is an original and strange way of drinking wine. Remember what Jessica said to Ivano in the film Viaggi di Nozze directed and starring by Carlo Verdone? Well, the slogan "Let's Drink It Strange" is inspired by the famous "Famolo Strano" of the bizarre Roman couple.
Verdeca is one of the historical Puglia grape varieties. Its name comes from the particular pale green colour of the grape, which is also typical of the wine. The best type of soil for verdeca is shallow calcareous rock. In the glass the nose shows hints of green apple, lemon and star anise. Sensations of salt with good balance and finesse on the palate.
Vegamaro is a pun with the words “vegan” and “negroamaro” and it is the first vegan negroamaro in the world. The whole production process, from the vine to the bottle, is done following a rigorous protocol. The grapes are cultivated avoiding manure, herbicide with an animal origin and pesticide. During the vinification process only vegetal substances are used. Bright red ruby wine; on the nose it is rich in crisp red fruits, with hints of sweet spices and roasted tobacco. Well-balanced, full bodied and elegant in the mouth with good tannic structure that enhances the flavour through to the long finish.

Malvasia Bianca is a vineyard that has always been present in Salento. In particular, these few magnum bottles (12 in total) were obtained from an ancient manor vineyard and vinified without the aid of modern techniques such as temperature control. With a good body and structure (alcoholic content 14.5% vol.) it is golden yellow in color with hints of almond and aromatic herbs. Each bottle is sold with a certificate of authenticity.
One of the most intriguing and fascinating negroamaro. This is why it is always worth keeping a good supply in the cellar to drink a glass of it at the right time. It is a wine with an intense red colour. The nose explodes with hints of carob and raisins. In the mouth it has spicy notes of black pepper and tobacco. The finish is long and structured. The first vintage produced was 2002 in 2,298 bottles. All bottles are numbered by hand. In the vintage of 2013, only 380 magnum bottles were produced, all numbered by hand and all are sold with a certificate of authenticity.
Chardonnay is a vine present everywhere in the world but the wines it gives us are not the same at all. Each of them has taste, aromas, color and personality that speak of the area in which it is grown. Like this Diecianni: a straw yellow wine that releases notes of pear, pineapple and aromatic herbs. Extraordinary on the palate with a spicy entrance and a finish with good sapidity.

The denomination Salice Salentino Negroamaro is one of the first born in Puglia: in fact, it was established in April 1974. The geographical area dedicated to the production of this important DOP includes a total of 7 municipalities in Northern Salento including Guagnano. The Diecianni Salice Salentino Negroamaro has a compact red color with delicate garnet hues. The sensory profile is complex: it ranges from the typical notes of tobacco and vanilla. In the mouth it expresses sensations of bitter almond on a powerful tannin. Of these magnums, vintage 2016, only 762 bottles were produced and they are all sold with a certificate of authenticity.
