Winery
The PaoloLeo winery is divided into two wine cellars, the first is located in the heart of Salice Salentino DOC (San donaci) the second, inaugurated in'August 2020, is located at the gates of Primitivo di Manduria DOC (Monteparano). The winery is flanked by the agricultural one, which has more than 70 hectares and a very old 16th-century farmhouse surrounded by vineyards. Paolo Leo, born in 1960, was born into a family where making wine was an inevitable inheritance; And today it is still an heir, the eponymous Paolo Leo, Nicola's son, who leads the new winery, together with his wife Roberta and sons Nicola, Stefano, Francesco and Alessandro, flanked by loyal collaborators. For years present on the Apulian and international market, it has always operated with respect for the environment and its territory rich in tradition and history. Vines are grown on predominantly calcareous clay soils, with more sandy areas and others with emerging rock , with a mild climate that have made Salento, a fertile sub-region of the Puglia region that bases its economy on agriculture.
