For those who like 'a lot of wine for little', the heel of the Italian boot is a region to keep an eye on. Warm, spicy wines are made here from local grapes. The winemakers are not hindered by clouds in the sun, cold, excessive rain or hail. That makes a difference in the price. This bottle of the local Nero di Troia grape is a textbook example.| Color: | Red | Taste profile: | Full bodied | Country: | Italy |

Puglia is one of the largest grape producers in Italy. Not one of the largest wine producers, mind you, because only a quarter of the grapes end up as wine in a bottle. The rest is distilled or ends up as grape concentrate. Puglia is a region where you have to search a bit, but where you can still find characteristic red wines with a favorable price-quality ratio for Italy.
