Menhir

Salento Primitivo and Negroamaro from Southern Italy's limestone terroir.

Menhir produces wines from Salento, the sun-drenched heel of Puglia in Southern Italy. The region's limestone soils and Mediterranean climate nurture indigenous varieties that have thrived here for centuries. The winery's portfolio centers on Primitivo and Negroamaro, grapes that express the intensity and structure characteristic of this corner of the south. CalaMuri Primitivo, a single-varietal expression, demonstrates the depth these old vines can achieve. Numero 0 blends Negroamaro with Susumaniello, a local variety that adds complexity and texture. Salice Salentino, a traditional blend of Negroamaro and Malvasia, reflects the region's winemaking conventions.
