A noble wine, like its history.
The Doxi Rosso Riserva bears the name of an ancient and influential family from Gallipoli, the Doxi Stracca, who distinguished themselves in the eighteenth century for their wealth and prestige, residing in a sumptuous baroque palace in the heart of Gallipoli. This wine evokes their grandeur: an elegant, rich red with an authoritative character, perfectly consistent with the cultural and historical roots of Salento.
