The Negroamaro grapes come from different municipalities in Salento. The terroir consists of calcareous clay. Winters here are moderate and springs and summers very dry. Grapes are harvested strictly by hand, the bunches are carefully selected and subjected to a traditional maceration of 10-12 days on the skins, during which the must is fermented at a controlled temperature. Alcoholic fermentation is followed by malolactic fermentation.
The wine is aged for about 6 months in French oak barriques and then the wine continues to mature in the bottle for another 2 to 3 months.
