The story

Le Vigne di Sammarco is the Rizzello family's estate at Cellino San Marco in the Salento, built up over three generations since grandfather Marco chose to bottle his own wine in the 1970s. The family farms 200 hectares, 120 of them under vine, with most of the land given to the native Salento grapes Negroamaro, Primitivo, Malvasia Nera and Susumaniello. The range runs from an everyday Classica line to the Nottetempo Chardonnay cru and the oak-aged Selezione wines.
