Thus, the vines are aggressively pruned back and the harvest of grapes is highly selective. The production facility at the famed winery is ultra modern and the winery now turns out award -winning wines year in and year out.

The estate was founded in 1665 by Duke Oronzo, Earl of Lemos. After being enchanted by the landscape of Puglia he decided to sell all his properties in Spain, and dedicated himself to making great wine from the rich terroir of Salento. He began by planting new vines, olive trees and wheat on the 5,000 hectares of property which spanned Salice, Guagnano, Veglie, Villa Baldassarri, Novoli and San Pancrazio. 'Five Roses', the now famous rosǸ made by Leone de Castris, was first produced in 1943, and was the first rosato to be bottled in Italy. Its name comes from a 'contrada', belonging to the family, so called, because for several generations each de Castris had five children. During the 1960s, the direction of the company was in the hands of Cavaliere del Lavoro Salvatore Leone de Castris, and thanks to his efforts the winery developed both locally and internationally. The philosophy of continuous improvement is now driven on by his son, Piernicola Leone de Castris, who has been Managing Director since the late 1990s. Leone de Castris have always been pioneers in spreading the richness of Salento's viticulture all over the world. They have 350 years of history looking towards the future.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_drink_fbb5b570-decc-4e04-802d-57d23e1aa7cf.jpg?113\" alt=\"Drink\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Drink Now\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_food.gif?113\" alt=\"Foods\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Grilled Meat, Game, Hard Cheese\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_dryness.gif?113\" alt=\"Dryness\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Dry\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_body.gif?113\" alt=\"Body\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Medium Bodied\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_colour.gif?113\" alt=\"Colour\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Dark Ruby\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_grapes.gif?113\" alt=\"Grapes\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Negroamaro\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_region.gif?113\" alt=\"Region\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Puglia, Italy\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_producer.gif?113\" alt=\"Producer\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Leone de Castris\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/product_icons_vintage.gif?113\" alt=\"Vintage\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e 2018\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/files\/sulphites_0ab734f9-50cc-46cc-a01a-27564467f9c2.jpg?113\" alt=\"Sulphites\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Contains Sulphites\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2019-02-05T12:19:43+00:00","created_at":"2019-02-05T12:19:43+00:00","vendor":"Christopher Piper Wines","type":"Food, Beverages \u0026 Tobacco \u003e Beverages","tags":["Digital Goods VAT Tax","Puglia - Italy (Red Wine)"],"price":1530,"price_min":1530,"price_max":1530,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":19614907957336,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Negroamaro Eloveni 2018","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1530,"weight":1000,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":""}],"images":["\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/products\/A106614.jpg?v=1549637125"],"featured_image":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/products\/A106614.jpg?v=1549637125","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"Negroamaro Eloveni","id":932578787416,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.995,"height":201,"width":200,"src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/products\/A106614.jpg?v=1569099468"},"aspect_ratio":0.995,"height":201,"media_type":"image","src":"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0043\/0066\/9016\/products\/A106614.jpg?v=1569099468","width":200}],"content":"\u003cp\u003ePure Negroamaro, characteristically very deep brilliant red in colour.
