Regional Information:
Puglia is a long, thin wine region in the far south-eastern corner of the 'boot' of Italy.
Not only are there cultural and geographical differences when compared to northern Puglia, but the wines are also different.
Where the north is slightly hillier and more connected to the customs and winemaking practices of central Italy, the south is almost entirely flat and retains a strong connection with its Greco-Roman past.
