An ancient grape, a new elegance
The Nero di Troia, among the oldest Apulian grape varieties, is known for its rich tannic structure. Once used for blending, today it is the protagonist of a cultural and oenological rebirth, which enhances its finesse, complexity, and evolutionary potential.
According to legend, it was Diomedes, hero of the Trojan War, who brought it to Puglia. Others trace its origins to the village of Cruja, on the opposite Adriatic coast. Whatever its origin, today it is a wine that proudly tells the story of its land.
