Francesco Allegrini is a passionate winemaker. With a lot of commitment, great experience and a very good feeling for the taste needs of the market, he drives his dedicated team to new top performances. He has achieved a real stroke of genius with the Terre di Montelusa series, which captures the full fruity, slightly spicy and beguilingly fragrant character of southern Italy.
Terre di Montelusa Altopiano wines come from the exposed altitudes of Puglia and Sicily. Thanks to the moderate temperatures, the vegetation phase of the grapes in the high-lying vineyards is significantly longer than in the heat of the valley. This results in an extremely rich and complex aroma. The grapes are harvested by hand, gently expanded and matured in small oak barrels for almost a year. The result is full-bodied, dense and velvety wines in which ripe fruit is combined with spicy notes of wood to create a nuanced play of aromas. Rich colour, luscious nose and a ripe, soft taste crowned by a subtle note of wood are the outstanding values of the Terre di Montelusa Riserva, which comes from the sun-drenched Apulian DOC region of Brindisi and convinces with an extremely attractive price.
