Bolonero Torrevento 2021

The Bolonero from Torrevento is a wine originating from the northwestern Murgia, in the area near Castel del Monte. The history of the Liantonio family begins in 1923, when the patriarch Francesco returns from America and decides to invest his small fortune in some lands of his beloved Puglia: in Paolo del Colle, he begins a rudimentary winemaking and extra virgin olive oil production. In 1948, together with his brother, he purchases an ex-Benedictine convent located in the area of "Torre del Vento", expanding and refining his production: two years later, the actual Torrevento winery comes to life with the start of wine marketing in Italy and abroad. In the early '90s, with Francesco Liantonio, a thriving business with a well-defined identity is born, now at the highest level in markets around the world.  

The Nero di Troia and Aglianico grapes of the Bolonero from Torrevento are born in vineyards located about 350-400 meters above sea level. The soil is of alluvial origin and tasting a product that encapsulates the genuine flavors of the Apulian land, becoming its undisputed ambassador.
