the Wine of Salento
Welcome to Cantina Monsellato, located in the heart of Salento, the southern part of Puglia. Surrounded by the magnificent promontory of the Serre Salentine, our territory is washed by both the Ionian and Adriatic Seas. This beautiful region, also known as the Murge Salentine, stretches south of the imaginary line joining the fascinating cities of Gallipoli and Otranto.
Cantina Monsellato covers about 20 hectares of precious Salento land. Our vineyards occupy a significant part of this extension, while another 13 hectares are dedicated to olive groves. The care and dedication with which we cultivate our land is reflected in the quality of our wines.
