CANTINE AMASTUOLA
Amastuola Vineyard is a unique example of the possible harmony between production and aesthetics based on the design by the well-known landscape architect Fernando Caruncho. The vineyard, with its extension of more than 100 hectares of entirely organic farming, is situated in the heart of the Mediterranean region, in Puglia (Italy), on a 210 meter plateau, where the microclimate favors organic farming and the soil’s precious minerals and nutrients gives the wine a very special aroma. Our wines combine the power and strength of those typically found in coastal regions, but with the scents of typical country wineries. Producing organic wine means that we adopt a production philosophy based around a fusion of the territory and nature, while supporting the reduction of the use of chemicals (fertilizers and pesticides) and sulfites, embracing precision farming practices and biological cultivation techniques to prevent parasitic infection through natural methods.
