Italy has more native grape varieties than any other country with some experts calculating there to be up to 2,000 genetic and wild varieties, including rare local vines. You may be familiar with Primitivo from Puglia / Apulia but there is so much more to this sun-drenched, Southern Italian region.

Let the Summer vibes continue and join us for a tour around the wines of A Mano, lovingly made in this beautiful part of Italy.

The continued success of A Mano (By hand / Handmade in English) is at least partly attributable to the knowledge that owners Mark and Elvezia have gleaned from over 18 vintages in Puglia, where they have access to Salento’s best grapes.

The quality of the fruit shines through in the A Mano wines. The A Mano Bianco is made from 100% Fiano and displays aromas of ripe pear and orange blossom. The Rosato, made from 100% Primitivo, is fermented at low temperatures to retain the delicate perfume of the variety. The Negroamaro is fermented at low temperatures and is unoaked, preserving the purity of the old-vine fruit. The Falanghina comes from vineyards at 400 metres elevation in northern Puglia where limestone soils and the elevation give a wonderful freshness and mineral character to the wine. Susumaniello is a rare and ancient Puglian red variety. The wine is deep, inky purple and full-bodied.

Along with these amazing wines, we will be serving a selection of artisan cheeses from our deli.
