Our vines
17 88 NERO DI TROIA
It is the vine that has the focus in the history of our territory before and, of the Domus Hortae, after wards it has ancient historical roots wrapped in myths and legends, first of all the docking of Diomede on the Tremiti Islands (also called Diomedee Islands) and then he founded Arpi and Canosa going up, with his boat, the Ofanto river. The name of the vine is believed to come from the famous ancient Greek city ‘Troia’ (Ilium)
An average productive vine, resistant and well adapted to the hot and aridclimate of northern Apulia. The plant takes advantage of prolongeds unexposure and resists long drought periods, typical of the Apulia region.
It is a native red grape variety par excellence of northern Apulia. The red and compact bunch, the medium berry, spheroidal, with skin covered with pruina, thick and coriaceous. The pulp is not fleshy. From these grapes a ruby red wine with violet reflections is obtained with pleasant aromas and strong structure. Also vinified as rosé.
D.H.E.S.
The name “Primitivo” is due to the precocious ripening of the grapes. Primitivo is an Italian blackberry vine, the dark blue skinrich in anthocyanins and pruina, of medium thickness, lends itself to drying. The grape has medium size and is spheroidal. The pulp is fleshy and the juice is very sweet. The wine has an intense ruby red color, almost impenetrable. The nose releases a romas of dark fruits and spices. In degustation it is warm, soft, structured and of good persistence.
KALINERO
KALI, nice !! In Greek it was the ‘good’ wish … good day, good evening, good … ….For us it is the cin cin of a good glass of (of ours) ‘Nero di Troia’. Nero di troia single variety produced in our vineyards in the contrada of Grassano delle Fosse. The careful management of our vineyard, the caring harvest, the assiduous effors to winemaking and the scrupulous ageing in steel tanks complete our idea for this wine.
KIA ROS
KIAROS, from Kairos, the “cairological time”, the ‘opportune time’, ‘right time’ or the supreme moment of indefinite time in which something special happens. It is time meant as quality and not as passing time.
Our Kia Ros, Nero di Troia vinified in “Kiaros” (light white process), is the result of grapes harvested when the curve of acidity and the sugars one intersect to reach the quality optimal point, difficult to find .. but excellent (ideal) result ….. for a perfect balance between freshness and softness.

TI ESTI’
TI ESTI’ (what is it?) Is the question that Socrates asked his interlocutors to go back to the premise, to break the rhetoric and to arrive at a rational and correct definition, clear and identified.
The “Ti esti” is the inescapable starting point for any rational comparison that evades from the clichés and identifies, in the inebriating aro.
KIMERE
Un vino distintivo, dalla facilità di beva disarmante! Vendemmiato entro la metà di settembre e vinificato in purezza, colore scarico con riflessi giallo verdolino.
Un vino dai profumi poco intensi ma espressivi di un sud secco, arido, caldo e asciutto. Profumi di arbusti, di pannocchia di granoturco secco, di mandorla, di granaglie, di salvia selvatica. Non mancano sentori minerali e carsici, come la roccia Garganica.
FA#
Il passito da Nero di Troia con suono in crescendo.
FA – Una sillaba, due lettere, un nome e un cognome, una nota musicale!
FA♯ il passito da Nero di Troia con suono in crescendo.
Diesis ♯, passaggio, intervallo, nonno e nipote, passato e futuro!
Sentori di frutta rossa matura, prugna e fichi disidratati, nel finale aromi terziari di cacao e caffé completano il morbido bouquet di questo vino. Amabile al gusto, dolce ma non troppo con decisa personalità.
