STORY BEHIND THE WINE

Tenuta Bocca di Lupo is a prestigious winery in Puglia, part of the Tormaresca estate under the Antinori family. Located in the Castel del Monte DOC region, it’s renowned for producing exceptional wines, particularly from the native Nero di Troia grape. The wines are rich, elegant, and full-bodied, reflecting the unique terroir with a focus on quality, sustainability, and craftsmanship.

The name "Pietrabianca" is a tribute to the rocks that characterise the territory, rocks that farmers encounter while preparing the soil. These rocks, when they are ground and become an integral part of the soil, help to enhance the aromas of the wines that come to life here.
