The origins of Santa Lucia date back to 1628, when Marc’Antonio Perrone earned 60 annual ducats of feudal revenue in the town of Quarati. Quarati is the modern Corato, where the winery is currently located at about 3,500 m. above sea level. Organically farmed, one finds selected clones of local vines from the Murgia area: Nero di Troia for red wine, Bombino Nero for Rosè, and Fiano for white wine. The winery philosophy centers around obtaining top quality grapes, grown using organic agriculture. The vines grow with the single guyot method, with a density of 5,500 plants per he. The result is the production of four great artisan wines, instantly recognizable: Riserva Le More and Il Melograno from Nero di Troia grapes; Fior di Ribes from Bombino Nero for the Rosè, and Gazza Ladra from Fiano for the white.
