Cosimo Taurino "Notarpanaro" 2013

The Taurino family has been growing grapes and making wines in Puglia for seven generations, but it was Francesco Taurino who started the family business after World War II to supply Italy and Europe with authentic Apulian wines. Today, the estate encompasses 80 hectares of vineyards planted almost exclusively to Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera grapes – both indigenous to the area of Salento where they are grown. This 100% Negroamaro is sourced from the 40-hectare Notarpanaro vineyard.
