San Marzano
San Marzano was born in a small village in the center of the Primitivo di Manduria doc, a strip of land kissed by the two seas in Salento, the Ionian and the Adriatic, from a group of 19 pioneer winemakers, who years before the Doc and of the success of Primitivo di Manduria they share their knowledge and unite to make Primitivo a leading wine. A path made of growth and new experiences, which arrives at the bottling, in 1996, of the first bottles of the cellar and which continues today with wines such as the award-winning Sessantanni Primitivo di Manduria Dop, which was born with the idea of making an old wine way making it contemporary.

San Marzano tells about the territory with its wines, which have made Primitivo di Manduria what it is today.

San Marzano wants to tell about its wine and the territory where it was born also thanks to the new headquarters for tastings, Masseria Samia, a typical 16th century farmhouse on the Ionian coast, enhanced by a respectful and conservative restoration and surrounded by a sustainable vineyard, dedicated to research on minor clones of known autochthonous vines and on those almost forgotten.
