Tuffetto is the name of an aquatic bird that winters and nests in the wildlife protection oasis of Lake Cillarese on the outskirts of Brindisi. 400 metres from this natural habitat are the Negroamaro vineyards of Tenuta Lu Spada. From the noble parts of these grapes comes TUFFETTO, a rosé vinified according to the ancient Brindisi peasant tradition. The marine climate and the fresh waters of the basin give this rosé unmistakable light, colour, fragrance and taste.
