In the flute, traces of an ancient land
When the power of man and of the earth encounter each other, something rare and unique emerges. A special union between a passionate determination and the frank memory of a venerable history. Between sea and stone, in Puglia, in the Salento peninsula, along the road chosen by Jesuit monks and noble knights, rises Masseria Capoforte. The idea of Ettore, the work of a family. To create high-quality wines from select grape varieties, to encounter, through the senses and the imagination, the pleasure of unusual bottles.
Spaces and times of wines that convey a terroir
Here is a land lashed by sea and wind, where the sun challenges vineyards that stubbornly raise their heads. Here are born the wines of Masseria Capoforte, in the heart of the Salento, where nature is extreme yet offers a generous gift to man’s perseverance and dedication.
