wine The Renaissance of Apulian Rosé STORY BY C hristia n Koch It’s the “golden age” for Puglia’s pink harvest, thanks to top-ranking vineyards and increasing global recognition W hich Italian region produ- ces the most wine? Tu- scany with its ‘trattoria’- imbibing Chiantis? Piedmont and Nino Piccolo Architetto www.ninopiccolo.com its big-hitting Barolos? Perhaps Franciacorta, accomplishing a turnover of never-ending bottles of Prosecco? It’s actually Puglia. The volumes of vino produced by Italy’s sunbaked heel are staggering: nine million hec- toliters in 2017 alone. That nearly equals Chile’s entire output and is more wine produced than the whole of Germany.

Indeed, most Apulian grapes ended up fortifying table wine or being blended into vermouth. Today, it’s a different story. Puglia still shifts huge quantities of wine, but oenophiles across the globe are now finally raving about its quality. This is thanks, partly, to Apulian winemakers better promoting their 18
