IGT area (land wines) for white, red and rosé wines in the Italian region of Apulia with 60 hectares of vineyards. It covers the entire province of Bari as well as the municipalities of Andria, Barletta, Bisceglie, Canosa di Puglia, Minervino Murge and Trani in the province of Barletta-Andria-Trani. Grape varieties authorised in the region may be used. Varietal wines must contain at least 85% of the variety in question, up to 15% may be other varieties. Dual varietal wines must be blended from at least 50 to 85% of the main grape variety and 15 to a maximum of 50% of other grape varieties. For the wines, a minimum alcohol content is prescribed for each wine type, but no ageing periods.
As honorary chairman of the Domäne Wachau, it is the easiest and quickest way for me to access the wein.plus encyclopaedia when I have questions. The certainty of receiving well-founded and up-to-date information here makes it an indispensable guide.
