Vinicola Mediterranea
Vinicola Mediterranea produces wines from Puglia, the sun-drenched region at the heel of southern Italy. The winery draws on indigenous grapes that thrive in the region's warm climate and limestone soils. Emozione Negroamaro, the flagship expression, showcases the dark-skinned Negroamaro variety in its pure form—a grape that defines Puglian red wine. Il Granduca Salice Salentino Riserva blends Negroamaro with Malvasia Nera, adding textural complexity to the core varietal. Primoduca Primitivo di Manduria explores the region's other signature grape, Primitivo, known for its ripe fruit character and structure. Wine Spectator has rated these wines, reflecting their technical merit and regional authenticity. Vinicola Mediterranea's portfolio anchors itself in Puglia's terroir and the distinctive character of its native varieties.
