Polvanera | Puglia



The Polvanera winery was founded in 2003 by Filippo Cassano, who grew up in a family with deep roots in Apulian agriculture. It takes its name from the characteristic “black dust” of the Gioia del Colle soils, whose dark soil also lends powerful expression to the vines. Located in a lovingly restored farmhouse near Marchesana, Polvanera can look back on vineyards dating back to 1860. Particularly valuable is the stock of historic Primitivo vines, some of which are over sixty years old, which lay the foundation for wines of great depth with their low but concentrated yields.

Today, Polvanera focuses on the indigenous varieties Primitivo and Aglianico, complemented by Aleatico, Fiano Minutolo, Falanghina and Moscato Bianco. This diversity forms the basis for a wide-ranging collection, from powerful, densely structured red wines to fresh, aromatic white wines. Through careful manual harvesting, sustainable cultivation and state-of-the-art cellar technology, Filippo Cassano succeeds in making the unique terroir and the historical substance of the vines perceptible in every wine - always with the aim of further consolidating the reputation of the DOC Gioia del Colle. - Gerardo [TS05/25]

"Filippo Cassano needed only a few years, then his creation, the winery Polvanera, was a household name in the wine world. So was the DOC and the place of origin, Gioia del Colle. Filippo is a modest man who always treats his guests with refined courtesy. He combines his simple, human manners with an unbeatable agronomic and oenological talent. The vineyards surrounding the winery are 350 meters high. Ten years ago, the vines, raised with cone pruning on cordons, were planted in a thin layer of soil with lean, skeletal limestone soil. The grapes for the farm's top wines, on the other hand, are taken from three 60-year-old Alberello vineyards in the acquaviva area, a zone swept by sea winds and home to many olive and almond trees." - Slow Wine

Polvanera | Puglia | Buy at Gerardo

In the south of Italy, around the town of Gioia del Colle in Apulia, the area is considered the region of origin of the Primitivo grape variety. Once mainly used for blends, Primitivo is now experiencing a renaissance as an independent single-vineyard wine. The young Polvanera winery, founded in 2003 by Filippo Cassano, is entirely dedicated to this grape variety and other indigenous varieties of the region. Filippo, who comes from a traditional farming family, set himself the goal of reviving the regional wine culture. With the purchase of an old farm in Marchesana, near Gioia del Colle, he laid the foundations for an ambitious quality project.

Some of the vineyards date back to the 19th century, with old vines trained like small trees in the Alberello style. These historic vines, some of which are up to 65 years old, produce low yields but exceptionally concentrated grapes. Today, Polvanera cultivates around 100 hectares of land, 70 hectares of which are planted with Primitivo. Other varieties such as Aleatico, Fiano Minutolo, Falanghina, Aglianico and Moscato complete the portfolio. The grapes are harvested exclusively by hand to ensure the highest quality.

The name Polvanera - “black dust” - refers to the dark soils of the region, which give the wines their character. A special feature of the winery is the wine cellar, carved eight meters deep into the rock, where the wines mature under ideal natural conditions. The combination of old vines, mineral soils, careful manual work and modern cellar technology gives the wines expressiveness and elegance. Filippo Cassano and his team not only produce Primitivo with “Gioia del Colle” DOC status, but also white and rosé wines full of character as well as sparkling wines that impressively demonstrate the region's potential. - Gerardo [TS05/25]
