Salento Aglianico IGT "Terra" is a product of the Conti Zecca winery, whose origins date back to the 1500s. Centuries of history blend with the most innovative agricultural techniques and modern cultivation methods, aimed at preserving the environment and limiting human intervention in nature as much as possible. Each stage of the manufacturing process is carefully monitored, a factor that determines the excellent quality of the red in question. Salento Aglianico IGT "Terra" is obtained for 85% from Aglianico vines, originating in Greece and present in Italy from the 7th century BC The remaining 15% is represented by Negroamaro grapes, typical of Puglia and widespread throughout southern Italy . Salento, the area where the winery is located, is characterized by a particularly favorable climate for viticulture, thanks to its mildness and the breeze that blows from the sea. A wine with an important body and a velvety taste, Salento Aglianico IGT "Terra" is closely linked to its territory, as can also be seen from the name. The particular and intriguing taste of the wine is due to the long aging process, which takes place first in barriques and then in the bottle.
