Tasting Notes: This wine shimmer with a pale straw color and offers a clean bouquet of white flowers, lemon zest, and crunchy green apple. On the palate, it feels lean and remarkably crisp, delivering a refreshing wave of citrus and tropical melon flavors. A subtle thread of saline minerality provides structure and depth without the need for oak influence. The finish is bright and lively, leaving a snappy, mouth-watering impression that calls for another sip.
Estate History: The Cantele story began in the late 1970s when Giovanni Cantele and his wife Teresa Manara relocated from Northern Italy to the Salento peninsula. Captivated by the rugged beauty and viticultural potential of Puglia, they established their winery in 1979 to champion the region's unique terroir. Through three generations, the family has evolved from traditional grape growers into modern producers who blend local heritage with international sophistication. Today, the grandchildren of the founders oversee the estate, maintaining a focus on sustainable practices and precision winemaking that has helped elevate Puglian wines on the global stage.
