Canace

Cantina Diomede, which controls 200 hectares of vineyard, is based in northern Puglia, close to the town of Canosa. Oenologists Luca Pugliese and Danilo Gizzi work hard to obtain high-quality, healthy grapes. Most operations are carried out manually, and the vineyards are farmed organically. The 'Canace' Nero di Troia is a step up. Aged for 12 months in large French oak barrels, this wine balances richness with a fresh acidity, velvety tannins and a spicy finish.
