Located in Oria, in the heart of the Salento peninsula , Masseria Altemura is inserted in the context of the defensive garrisons that even before the arrival of Hannibal had the purpose of protecting the colonists from the attacks of brigands . The estate takes its name from the massive fortified tower built during the Aragonese domination of the sixteenth century, later used to send messages through carrier pigeons. 130 hectares of vineyards surround the estate, flanked by the perfect geometry of 40 hectares of centuries-old olive trees . Masseria Altemura produces great excellences from the indigenous vines of Puglia, which express strength and elegance as a sort of trademark of the Salento area . First of all Zìnzula , an extremely evocative wine that takes its name from the Salento dialect word "zinzuli", which means "rags" and is a poetic homage to the marvelous Zinzulusa cave located in Castro. Rosé from Negroamaro grapes only, harvested in the coolest hours of dawn, brings its color, which is expressed in shades of pale pink that turns towards copper. Primitivo in purity is Sasseo , one of the company's Crus, a bewitching and enveloping ruby red wine, like velvet. Try them with us and you will thank us.
