Masada is the place, in JUDEA, where, at the time of the Roman Empire, the wine of Brindisi was exported from Italy, whose thousand-year-old tradition has inspired the wine production of TENUTE LU SPADA. From the vineyards of red Negroamaro grapes comes this wine, elegant, full-bodied, modern and inextricably linked to the territory. The proximity to the Adriatic Sea and the oasis of the Cillarese Lake, the organic cultivation with techniques that combine tradition and innovation enhance its characteristics and quality.
