Corte Saggese
Salento IGP Chardonnay.
Corte Saggese is the name of that alley in the historic centre of the town, between the carparo stone walls and the life that flowed in the main square, where the first Cantina Marulli was born, thanks to the peasant stubbornness and the vision of a man whose love for his own land set the example for his children and grandchildren.
We dedicated a wine of great freshness to that man. The challenge for his grandchildren is that of giving a leading role to an international vine grown in the South.
