About this wine

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand in late August to preserve their crisp acidity, then destemmed. The wine is produced using the Charmat method at Due Palme’s sparkling-wine facility.

Label / history

Amaluna was the first sparkling wine produced in Salento and the first wine made at Due Palme’s new sparkling-wine facility. Its name celebrates the moon as a symbol of femininity and creation, reflecting its special significance to farmers and their hopes and wishes.

Cantine Due Palme is a cooperative founded in 1989 and based in Cellino San Marco. It brings together 400 wine producers and is led by chief winemaker Angelo Maci. Red wines account for 85% of its total production.
