New World wines from the Old World: first settled by the Greeks in the 8th c BC, over the centuries Puglia has been colonised by Romans, Turks, Slavs, Normans & Spaniards. Evidence of this long history is seen in the region’s ancient coastal towers overlooking the Adriatic Sea – hence the name, Tormaresca. Acquired by Antinori in1998 as the Puglian gem of their collection. The philosophy is to produce great wines from indigenous varietals that date back to the Magna Grecia, when all Southern Italy was known as Enotria – the land of wine. Tormaresca leads Puglia’s modern renaissance by combining classic winemaking with the latest viticulture techniques to create exceptional wines.
Winemaking >
The grapes, immediately after harvesting, were destemmed and softly pressed. The must obtained was transferred to stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 12 ° C in order to obtain a natural clarification; here alcoholic fermentation took place, conducted at a temperature of 16 ° C, to preserve and enhance the aromatic component. Calafuria aged a short period in steel in contact with its yeasts before bottling and subsequent release on the market.
