The wine region of Puglia
Puglia (Apulia to many English speakers) is a Long, slender wine region in the extreme Southeast corner of Italy's "boot". To use the shoe analogy often used to illustrate the shape of Italy, Apulia extends from the tip of the heel to the mid-calf, where the spur of the Gargano Peninsula juts out into the Adriatic Sea. The heel (the Salento peninsula) occupies the southern half of the region and is of great importance for the identity of Puglia. Not only are there cultural and geographical differences from Northern Puglia, but the wines are also different.
The word of the wine: Yellow wine
White wines from the Jura region aged in oak barrels without topping up for at least 6 years. A veil of yeast forms on the surface of the wine, which undergoes slow oxidation, giving it a particular taste reminiscent of nuts.
