Castel del Monte Il Melograno is a E.U. certified organic wine produced in Corato, north of Bari, in the Apulian Murge region. The grapes come from a family farm that has been producing artisanal wine and oil since 1822. Structured, intense, and elegantly persistent without losing its territorial identity, Il Melograno is truly an excellent quality dry red wine, with lively tannins, but soft at the same time.
