Tormaresca
Viticulture in Apulia is history and, at the same time, innovation. The Tormaresca estate is the expression of these two spirits.
The Antinori family started investing in the area in 1998 as they believed that this is one of the most promising regions in Italy for producing top quality wines with a strong territorial identity.
