THE CELLAR:

This is a story of family, of love for their land and its rediscovery. The sun of Puglia and the traditions of Salento conveyed by a vibrant entrepreneurial vein transmitted from a father to a son. A project that finds its roots in the 80s of the last century, with that farm founded by the forefather Tommaso Rubino which, first, recovered the viticultural potential of a territory from the distant past. Son Luigi, flanked by his wife Romina, which assists him in all aspects of marketing and communication, has collected the entrepreneurial legacy, instilling that great passion in one of the companies that today represents a model of Apulian viticulture.

Tenute Rubino is a project born in the mid-1980s from an idea of Tommaso Rubino, a staunch supporter of the potential of Salento. Through a long series of acquisitions, it has created an important production base divided over five estates, with the aim of best expressing the values of the local winemaking tradition.
The vineyard area, which belongs to four distinct groupings, covers about 275 hectares in total, starting from the Adriatic ridge to reach the inland areas of the province of toasts, where the company headquarters is located. The inauguration of a modern winemaking and aging cellar was the first of a series of innovations that have taken place over the years, involving both production processes and business organization. Tenute Rubino is now a reality of 1,200,000 bottles / year with a brand known all over the world, over 70% of its turnover is achieved on foreign markets, a symbol of the new image of Salento winemaking.
