Browse by Region in Italy - Salento
Salento IGT is one of the most commonly used IGT titles in Puglia, southern Italy. It covers the Salento, the limestone-based peninsula that divides the Adriatic Sea from the Ionian Sea and provides Italy with its 'heel'. In theory, Salento IGT wines may be red, white, rosé, still, sparkling (spumante), sweet (passito) or dry – essentially any style the local winemakers can dream of. In practice, however, the majority stick firmly to the long-established styles of the region: powerful, dry, rustic reds.
