Vigneti Reale Primitivo Rudiae
The History
The vineyards are located in the heart of the Salento production area (southern Apulia), on 250 hectares (600 acres) of fertile land where there is an ancient tradition of wine-making
and olive-growing. The landscape is flat, the rich and well drained soil is calcareous and tending to red. The climate is typically mediterranean, with long and dry summers, with a
constant breeze which helps thermal excursion. The cellar, a few kilometers from the vineyards, is equipped with highly advanced machinery, which enables low temperature control during every phase of the production, from transformation to
storage. The barriques are stored in the basement, for perfect aging.
