The Antinori family is a dynasty that has clearly left its mark on Italian wines: thanks in part to the Antinoris, Tuscan wines gained their popularity. However, the new members of the Antinori family are also not resting on their laurels and are constantly seeking new challenges, like Tormaresca.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The Italian wines from Puglia\u003c\/h2\u003e \nFor a long time, Italian wines were concentrated in the northern half of the country: Veneto, Piedmont, Lombardy, and Tuscany—resonant names for many Italian wine enthusiasts. The latter, in particular, enjoyed considerable success in the second half of the 20th century, thanks in part to the Antinori family. The southern regions were less popular. However, Antinori was one of the first (and few) to recognize the potential of a region like Puglia. They decided to take a chance and purchase an estate in the mid-1990s. A brilliant move, as it turned out.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e The Antinori wines of Tormaresca\u003c\/h2\u003e \nThe estate currently comprises two beautiful vineyards: Bocca di Lupo and Masseria Maime. The latter is particularly wonderful to visit. It comprises a whopping 500 hectares in total, located in Upper Salento, at higher altitudes. Of these, \"only\" 220 hectares are planted with vines. There's also an 85-hectare olive grove! It's clear from the outset that the Antinori family hasn't skimped on the Tormaresca wines. From the very beginning, they believed in the strength of the region and have also done everything possible to make it a success. Tormaresca Neprica wines are now exceptionally popular. Neprica is an acronym for the three most widely planted grape varieties at Tormaresca: NEgroamaro, PRImitivo, and Cabernet Sauvignon.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e Buy Tormaresca wine\u003c\/h2\u003e \nIn less than a quarter of a century, the Antinori family has established itself in the Italian wine world.
