Cantine San Marzano
In southern Italy, between the Adriatic and the Ionian Sea, Cantine San Marzano embodies a distinctly Apulian cooperative spirit rooted in San Marzano di San Giuseppe. Founded in 1962 by 19 winegrowers in the heartland of Primitivo di Manduria DOP, the estate still draws on old alberello bush‑vines, red iron‑rich soils and a maritime breeze that keeps ripening in check.
The approach blends rigorous grape selection with contemporary cellar craft: temperature‑controlled fermentations, malolactic conversion when required, then élevage in stainless steel, larger oak or barrique depending on whether Primitivo, Negroamaro or Susumaniello leads the blend. When the first in‑house bottling line arrived, the focus shifted from bulk tradition to a brand that speaks clearly of origin.
What comes out is a range designed for clarity and consistency—warm‑climate depth shaped into structure and balance, made to translate “Puglia” into a confident, export‑ready style.Cantine San Marzano
