Puglia (a.k.a. Apulia) is located in southeast Italy which is described by many as the “high heel of the boot.” Flanked by the Adriatic and Ionian seas, it’s a spectacularly fertile peninsula that's famous for growing olives, figs, almonds, wheat, and of course wine grapes. Its Mediterranean climate is hot with long, sunny days cooled off by ocean breezes. Wines have factored in throughout the many centuries that this region has been inhabited. The Greeks, Romans, Goths, Lombards, Byzantines, Turks and Venetians all occupied the province at various stages from several centuries B.C. up until ***1 when it was officially recognized as part of Italy.

      Puglia has dozens of DOCs and is divided regionally from north to south into Foggia, Bari, Taranto, Brindisi and Lecce. The signature indigenous grapes of the region are the red Negroamaro and Primitivo (found to be genetically the same as California’s Zinfandel), and the white, though less prolific, Verdeca. Primitivo’s main DOCs are Manduria, Gioia del Colle and Primitivo di Manduria Dolce Naturale, which is the sweet dessert wine that is the only DOCG pride of the region. Plantings of Negroamaro are far more widespread and account for nine DOCs including Salice Salentino and Brindisi.
