Tenuta Bocca di Lupo

Passion, courage and faith in the enormous qualitative potential of Puglia are the elements that, for over twenty years, have driven the Antinori family to invest in Puglia.

The estate is located in the countryside of Minervino Murge in Puglia, DOC region of Castel del Monte, an area known for the beauty of its wild nature.

The vines grow at about 300 meters above sea level in the Murgia, an area with difficult climatic conditions that over time have forced its inhabitants to work with great dedication. Harsh winters, temperatures that fluctuate dramatically, deep ravines, thick fog that often covers the vineyards and above all the proximity to the ancient Vulture volcano are just some of the characteristics of this territory that rewards patient work with precious harvests.

Puglia

Puglia, located in the southeastern part of Italy, is a prominent wine region known for its rich history and vibrant wine culture. Often referred to as the "heel" of Italy's boot, it has been producing wine for thousands of years, with viticulture deeply rooted in its ancient Greek and Roman heritage.

Puglia's warm Mediterranean climate, with abundant sunshine and cooling sea breezes, creates ideal conditions for growing robust and flavorful grapes. The area is particularly renowned for its red wines, with Primitivo and Negroamaro being the standout varieties. Primitivo, closely related to California's Zinfandel, produces bold, fruit-forward wines with high alcohol content, while Negroamaro is known for its deep color and complex flavors, often with hints of dark fruit and spices.

Puglia also produces notable rosé wines, particularly from the Salento area, and a range of full-bodied white wines, making it one of Italy's most diverse and dynamic wine regions.
