Purchased, renovated and revisioned by the Falvo family (ex-, well 90% ex-Avignonesi), this Apulian estate champions the forgotten, indigenous varieties of the Valle d'Itria. Their organically farmed Verdeca, a grape once relegated to cheap Vermouth production, now planted in traditional Roman military settonce pattern, gets a vibrant, mineral-rich, new life here.
