What to Expect When Visiting Lecce, Puglia, Italy
I am considered by many an expert in wines and atoria and traditions of Salento. My main activity is to sell Salento wines all over the world. Now I am ready to offer you the opportunity to taste the best local wine labels and traditional dishes with me to discover together all the secrets of Salento wine and food.
We will meet in the venue that I personally chose for this event. Here will be served 6 glasses of wine, 1 of white, 2 of rosé and 3 of red, produced from typical local grapes such as Negroamaro, Primitivo and Verdeca, accompanied by a selection of typical Salento gastronomic products such as olives, Pizzi, Pucce, Frise, Rustici, Capocollo from Martina Franca and the famous mozzarella and burrata fresh cheese. Obviously for each tasted label I will tell you the history of the wine and of the producing winery by telling you about the production techniques, the vines and the history of the terroirs related to the selected wines.
Sample Menu
• Lace and Pucce Leccesi – Leccesi laces and pucce are a typical Salento bread prepared with different mixes of olive and vegetable flours and cooked in a wood oven.
