The producer
Giuliani Vini
Nestled between the sun-baked hills of Turi and Gioia del Colle in Puglia, Azienda Agricola Giuliani has been crafting authentic Apulian wines since 1886. Guided by the philosophy "Amore per la terra, passione per i vini" — love for the land, passion for wine — the estate focuses exclusively on indigenous varieties: Primitivo, Negroamaro, Nero di Troia, Susumaniello, and Fiano. Their flagship Primitivo Gioia del Colle DOC has earned international recognition, including the prestigious Tre Bicchieri award from Gambero Rosso. Every bottle is an expression of a territory, a family, and a way of life that has remained unchanged for generations.
From the estate
- Region
- Gioia Del Colle (BARI) – Puglia
- Soil
- Red soil with a high presence of rocky outcrops in the Central Murgia region (Turi, Gioia del Colle, and Putignano). When crushed, these rocks provide the vine roots with essential limestone and vital coolness during the intense heat of the Apulian summer.
- Harvest
- Manual harvesting during the first and second ten days of September.
- Vinification
- Manual harvest with careful sorting of the bunches, followed by crushing and destemming. The grapes are gently pressed using soft presses to extract only the premium first fraction of the free-run must (60%), which then undergoes fermentation at a controlled low temperature.
- Ageing
- Refinement takes place in stainless steel tanks, followed by resting in the bottle for a total of 4 to 6 months before release.
