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.
