Polvanera

Polvanera was born from a long family tradition that has always had roots in viticulture. Filippo Cassano, owner and winemaker, has always been aware of the potential of Primitivo in his territory. Located between Acquaviva delle Fonti and Gioia del Colle, Polvanera is immersed in a unique landscape, with vineyards, dry stone walls and oak barrels. The unusual and characteristic cellar is dug 8 meters into the limestone rock. The structure allows the wines to age at a constant temperature, combining utility and beauty. Attached there is a historic farmhouse from 1820 with a rustic taste, used for hospitality. Together with his precious collaborators and the support of the family, Filippo Cassano continues to carry forward an ambitious project, aimed at enhancing Primitivo and other native vines, continually enhancing the quality of his products. The total production of Cantine Polvanera extends over approximately 100 hectares cultivated with Primitivo, Aleatico, Aglianico, Minutolo, Moscato, Falanghina, Marchione and Bianco d'Alessano. The labels differ from each other for the age of the vineyards and the type of soil on which they are located.
