Description
COPERTINO - LECCE - SALENTO
A few kilometres from the centre of Copertino, immersed in about 30 hectares of land, stands an ancient agricultural property consisting of a wine-making cellar and an old masseria dating back to the mid-1800s.
With a very large complex of buildings, the cellar covers an area of about 2,700 sqm.
The main building consists of two levels, ground floor and basement, with large rooms inside characterised by majestic vaulted ceilings and a modern wine cellar for the production of wines for the market.
The company produces different kinds of Negroamaro and Montepulciano wines. The vineyards are cultivated following the principles of sustainable agriculture and using certified low environmental impact products.
In addition to the main building, the property includes two additional outdoor units, one of which is used as a warehouse and the other one dedicated to wine retail.
The property also includes a splendid Masseria dating back to 1800, on two levels, ground floor and first floor, characterised by beautiful lounges and large panoramic terraces. Adjacent to the Masseria are further rooms in once used for domestic staff and storage, with a total covered area of approximately 2,400 sqm.
The Masseria still preserves all the places connected to agricultural activities of the past: the lodgings for the farmers and the farmer, the oven, the cisterns for collecting rainwater, the dovecote, the granaries, the rooms for storing seeds, those for processing milk and ripening cheese, and the oil mill.
The entire property is embellished by the presence of the Crypt of St Michael Archangel, depicted here according to Byzantine iconography, dating back to the early 14th century and embellished inside with two altars and ancient frescoes. The crypt has been recognised as an element of special historical-artistic interest and therefore subject to protection by the Ministry of Cultural and Environmental Heritage. In fact, the monks, who espoused a hermit philosophy of life based on prayer and cultivation of the fields, built caves in the ground to be used not only as a place of prayer, but also as a shelter during the frequent incursions and looting by the Turks.
The complexity of this prestigious agricultural estate, immersed in the green Salento countryside in one of the most productive areas of the Salento region, certainly makes it an excellent investment opportunity for those who wish to engage in the production of fine wines or in food and wine tourism and hospitality, also making use of the incentives of the Apulia Region for agriculture or the funds granted for the recovery of historical heritage.
The wine estate is located 15 km from Lecce, 10 km from Nardò, about 20 km from the beautiful marinas of Santa Maria al Bagno and Santa Caterina and 44 km from Brindisi airport.
