Information Winery
Masseria L'Astore was born from clean and sustainable agriculture, respecting the landscape designed by culture and tradition. L'Astore wines have been certified organic since 2010. Symbol of the Salento area are the old Alberelli di Negroamaro. Vines from 1947, an ancient iconic cultivation, not yet aimed at commercial viticulture. The vineyard is cultivated without the aid of synthetic chemicals (fertilizers, herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, pesticides in general) and without the use of genetically modified organisms. In the cellar, vinification is carried out using only the oenological products and processes permitted by regulation 203/2012. Moreover, as a certified organic producer, we follow the limits and provisions imposed by the regulations.
Alberelli - L’Astore
The name of the wine is emblematic and significant: Alberelli di Negroamaro since 1947 from the company L'Astore Masseria di Cutrofiano, the town in the province of Lecce famous for its terracotta and pizzica, owned by the Benegiamo family. The year 1947 does not of course refer to that of the production, but it is the date when the young Negroamaro saplings were planted, as stated on the label on the back.
Nice Fact :
Mick Jagger was so impressed with this wine that he bought half a pallet for his Chateau in France.
