Buy or order Masserie Li Veli wine

Puglia is hot! The wave of popularity for Puglian wines continues to reverberate through European countries. People are completely captivated by the power of Puglia. And who can blame them? Puglian wineries have been hard at work for the past twenty years, working tirelessly to achieve the highest quality for their wines. And they're now reaping the rewards; literally, as the grapes in Puglia's vineyards stand out beautifully against the rugged landscape of Southern Italy.

The Italian wines

One of those hard workers is undoubtedly Masseria Li Veli. The winery hails from a time when Puglian wines were dismissed as dull and flat. And to be fair, for a long time, that was true. Puglia was primarily the home of Italian wines, where mass was the standard. However, more and more wineries decided it was time to showcase the true power of Puglian wines to European wine drinkers. Thanks in part to numerous innovations and investments in the vineyards, Masseria Li Veli has reached the pinnacle of Puglian wines.

The wines of Masseria Li Veli

Li Veli Winery is located in a Masseria, a well-known phenomenon in Italian wine. These date back to the 10th to 12th centuries. They are a combination of a large farmhouse and a powerful manor house. The Masseria is a common sight in the Puglian landscape. The age of Li Veli's Masseria is not entirely clear, but it was most likely built in the early Middle Ages. This means that the exquisite wines of Masseria Li Veli are produced in a winery that is over a thousand years old!

To reach the vineyards of Masseria Li Veli, we have to travel deep into Puglia. Only halfway down the "heel" do we encounter the vineyards. Situated between the cities of Brindisi and Lecce, the grapes benefit optimally from Puglia's perpetual sunshine. Here you'll find typical Puglian grapes such as Negroamaro, Fianco, and Verdeca. The newest Puglian specialty, Susumaniello, is also widely planted. This is the source of the Masseria Li Veli Susumaniello's great success. However, the ultimate crowd-pleaser is undoubtedly the Masseria Li Veli Primitivo di Manduria, made from the incredibly popular Primitivo grape.
