Sotto il Sole operates in Salento, the sun-drenched heel of Puglia in Southern Italy. The winery draws from the region's native red varieties, each shaped by the intense Mediterranean climate and limestone soils that define this corner of the Italian south. Negroamaro, the flagship, carries the weight and dark fruit character typical of the variety, rated 88.0 by Wine Spectator. Nero d'Avola, Sicily's classic export, appears here with the structured depth the grape achieves in Salento's conditions, rated 87.5. Primitivo rounds the portfolio at 86.8—a variety that thrives in heat and delivers the ripe, generous profiles Puglia is known for. These are wines built on terroir and varietal identity rather than innovation; they reflect what the land and the grapes naturally offer.
