Conti Zecca

Puglia's Negroamaro specialist, rooted in southern Italy's ancient wine country.

Conti Zecca produces wines from Puglia, the sun-drenched region at the heel of southern Italy. The winery's portfolio centers on Negroamaro, the indigenous dark grape of the Salento peninsula, which brings deep color and structured tannins to the cellar's flagship expression. Alongside this regional anchor, Conti Zecca works with Zinfandel—a varietal that thrives in Puglia's warm continental climate—and blends Cabernet Sauvignon with Negroamaro to create layered, age-worthy reds. The wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Falstaff, reflecting their presence in serious wine discourse. Puglia's terroir of limestone-rich soils and Mediterranean heat produces wines with ripe fruit and mineral backbone, qualities evident across the house's range.
