Contrade
Contrade wines from Puglia are produced in the cellars of Masseria Li Veli with grapes from
local farmers. The Falvo Family started this project in 2015 to identify and raise awareness
of indigenous grape varietals in this ancient region. The tank fermented white is a blend of
90% Malvasia Bianca and 10% Chardonnay, and the red is 100% Negroamaro, aged for three
months in oak.

G.D. Vajra Langhe Nebbiolo Clare J.C. 2016
The wine is 100% Nebbiolo, made in the Metodo Ancestrale, meaning fermentation starts in
the tank on the skins and finishes in the bottle and is thus a sparkling wine. Slightly off-dry,
high in acid, fully red and slightly tannic, this wine is fresh and lively in the mouth but finishes
with finesse and length.
