A story of passion and commitment

Since 1959, the year of its foundation, two souls have coexisted in Cantine Lizzano, one linked to the tradition of a land where wine has always been made, and the other pushing towards innovation in vine cultivation techniques and wine production, with a single objective: to produce wines of ever-increasing quality.

In the DNA of Cantine Lizzano there is a strong desire to valorise autochthonous vines such as Primitivo, Negroamaro and Malvasia, without, however, closing itself off to international vines, such as Chardonnay and Cabernet, which in this corner of Salento have found a second home where they can express all their potential and most characteristic qualities.

The result? Wines capable of telling, with every sip, the story of a territory, its people and a passion for wine that comes from afar.

Characterising, since its foundation, every activity is the principle of 'short supply chain', which from Luigi Ruggieri, founder of the Cantina, reaches Rita Macripó, the current President, and is a guarantee of quality for the final consumer who chooses the Cantina's wines.
