The soil of Puglia is rich in calcium, and the labels of these wines soberly display its molecular structure: calcium is the key word here. Valentina Passalacqua and Danilo Marcucci own 45 hectares of vineyards in the region, one of the most environmentally committed (biodynamic, regenerative agriculture).
