About Us
Nardo, from the greek word “Neriton”, with it’s 190 square kilometers of land and a coastline stretching for more than 20kms, which includes the regional Park of Porto Selveggio, is after Lecce the largest centre of Salento.
the area has remarkable artistic importance with the historical centre decorated with beautiful churches and baroque buildings, while the countryside is dotted with towering Fortified Farms, revealing the ancestral interest and passion of the people for the land of Nardo that is very generous and perfect for the production of wine.
Within this frame is our historic winery, founded in 1937 with the initiative of 24 passionate winemakers who, by taking advantage of a thousand-year experience in the field of winemaking were able to achieve, even then, a beautiful product due to the favourable climate and environment of Nardo.
Today there are around 100 members that deliver their grapes to the Cantina from an area of around 90 hectares.
