Cellar
Produttori di Manduria is the oldest cooperative in Apulia.
The Cantina's adventure began in 1928 when a small group of 'enlightened' wine growers took over an old factory and created the 'Wine Federation', an association of producers that four years later, on 9 July 1932, formalised its legal status as a cooperative with the establishment of the 'Consorzio Produttori Vini e Mosti rossi superiori da taglio per la zona di Manduria'.
Today, the Cantina has around 1000 hectares of vineyards, half of which are still cultivated using the traditional alberello system, and strenuously defends the work of 400 small wine craftsmen, the only ones who can boast the appellative of Maestri in Primitivo.
