The Murgia is a generous land giving fruits of high quality. Nero di Troia is its typical grape variey, able to strengthen the nectars from vines such as Montepulciano and Cabernet Sauvignon. The feeling you feel tasting Rosso Magno is identical to that which we experience every day admiring the Alta Murgia and its beautiful landscapes, a sign of an alive and thriving land.
The name Rosso Magno is a direct reference to the color of the wine and to the San Magno contrada where the vineyards are located.
