AN ANCIENT FARMSTEAD EMBRACED BY THE RESPLENDENT LIGHT OF SALENTO

ZÌNZULA, THE JEWEL OF MASSERIA ALTEMURA, PAYING TRIBUTE TO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GROTTO IN SALENTO

ONE OF THE MOST INTERNATIONALLY SUCCESSFUL WINES FROM PUGLIA

THE ESTATE

A 17th-century farmstead embraced by the resplendent light of Salento and caressed by the delicate breezes of two seas.

The Estate is located within the Primitivo di Manduria DOC appellation, one of the most well-suited terroirs in Italy for quality viticulture. Within a single enclosure, it houses an ancient 17th-century Farmhouse, restored with respect for the environment and the original architecture, and a contemporary winery designed in accordance with the most up-to-date principles of eco-friendly architecture.

VINEYARDS

The Estate is located within the Primitivo di Manduria DOC appellation, one of the most well-suited terroirs for quality viticulture in Italy.

In its quest for absolute quality, the Zonin family has started a series of trials and experiments in order to achieve accurate clonal selection and evaluate the best possible relationship between the vine and the soil.

OUR EXCELLENCES

In addition to Primitivo, the vineyards of Masseria Altemura also host other autochthonous varieties such as Fiano, an ancient vine whose success dates back to the time of Frederick II of Swabia, and Negroamaro and Aglianico.
