Winery Overview
Discover Masseria Amastuola Wines and Resort located in Crispiano, on a hill at 210 meters above sea level where the Mediterranean climate encourages a good organic farming.
The area surrounding the vineyard, first abandoned, was recovered in 2006 by an impressive project by the famous landscape designer Fernando Caruncho creating a real "garden vineyard". The rows are drawn in accented and parallel waves that extend and swing for three kilometers, spaced with 24 islands of old olive trees.
"The wave of change" is the metaphor that captures the inspired action of Montanaro family, owner of the estate, which always acts with the courage between the respect for traditions and constant openness to the changes of the times.
In 2017, by the restoration of the ancient Masseria Amastuola, a Wine Resort was born with two tasting rooms where you can taste the Amastuola organic wines, a barrel cellar, a library and a restaurant that surprises with a typical Apulian gastronomy. From the terraces of the farm you have a breathtaking view of the Ionian Sea and the Amastuola vineyard garden.
Masseria Amastuola is the ideal place for wine lovers and wine enthusiasts. The huge space in the Masseria lets you live a unique experience, a sensorial wine tour discovering the excellence of Apuglian wine. The idea behind the wine resort is to promote experiences for all wine enthusiasts: from the wine lover, to the novice on their first experience with wine, from the international buyer to the representatives of the national wine scene.
The masseria also offers hospitality in the 18 rooms located on the first floor of the main body of the structure and inside the old stable. Made in the utmost respect for the original architecture and using local crafts and materials, the rooms are projected and designed to provide exceptional comfort. Each room has a different view, some of them overlook the garden vineyard, others the central courtyard and others the garden.
Staying at Amastuola can be even more exciting if you decide to take part in one of the many activities that are offered, such as the possibility of bike riding through the vineyard, relaxing while horse riding, tasting the Amastuola wines, becoming chefs in a cooking class and having fun with fishing or on one of the many other excursions available.
During the tasting experiences, Amastuola organic wines will be presented by an experienced partner who will explain the different stages of production: from the importance of the terroir to the techniques used in the vineyard, from the harvesting of the grapes to ageing in barrels, ending with bottling.
Taste the Masseria's wines while enjoying one of the several guided tasting tours offering different possibilities in which wine is always the protagonist. This may be enhanced by a selection of typical local products, enriching the experience with the pleasure of food expertly chosen to compliment the wine on offer.
