About the Producer:
Once the largest
and most important wine producer in the area, the name and cellar
of Torre Quarto provide an important historical reference for southern
Italy. After years dedicated to other business ventures, Dr. Stefano
Cirillo Farussi restored his family's winery to its original beauty.
He has shaken things up with replantings and tests of various training
systems and types of barrels. The results of this technology have
been fabulous, receiving praise from some of the most respected
critics in the business and leading the way in this part
of Italy.
Together
with talented
young
winemaker
Cristoforo
Pastore, the Farussi family has set out to conquer the world with
the underdeveloped grapes of Puglia. Leading the pack is the Uva
di Troia from Castel del Monte, bursting with deeply fruit-driven aromas
supported by powerful tannins. These are the mythical wines of
Puglia where quality is abundant at bargain level prices, which
the press loves to hype as the norm but which rarely exist.
