Quick answers

What is Nero di Troia and where does the grape variety come from?

Nero di Troia – also called Uva di Troia – is an indigenous red wine variety from Apulia in the south of Italy. It ripens late, develops an unusual depth in the process, and is considered one of the most characterful grape varieties in the region.

How does a typical Nero di Troia taste?

Full-bodied, with a mature, well-integrated tannin structure and pleasantly soft acidity. The Apulian terroir gives the wines a sun-warmed fullness that is immediately noticeable in the glass – without appearing heavy or clumsy.

How does Nero di Troia differ from other Southern Italian red wines?

Unlike Primitivo or Negroamaro, Nero di Troia brings a finer tannin structure and more structural elegance. The late ripening of the variety ensures depth and complexity, which sets it apart from many other red wines from the south.

What dishes does Nero di Troia pair with?

Hearty pasta dishes with ragù, grilled lamb, or braised roasts are classic companions. Ripe hard cheeses from the south also harmonize well with the soft acidity and tannin of the variety.

Is Nero di Troia also available as a rosé wine?

Yes. Nero di Troia is also used to create rosé wines that show the fruity side of the variety – livelier and lighter than the red wines, but with the same Apulian character. You can find both in our Apulia selection.

How do I recognize a well-made Nero di Troia?

A good Nero di Troia shows ripe, but not overpowering fruit, balanced tannins without harshness, and a length that lingers beyond the first sip. Wines from the Castel del Monte DOC are considered a particularly reliable origin for this variety.

Nero di Troia – the proud red wine from Apulia

Nero di Troia, also known as Uva di Troia, is an indigenous grape variety from Apulia in the south of Italy – one of those idiosyncratic varieties that hardly anyone knows, but which immediately captivates wine lovers. The wines typically appear deep-colored and full-bodied, with noticeable tannins and a lively acidity that gives them structure and longevity. Aromatically, Nero di Troia moves in the range of dark fruits, spicy notes, and a slightly tart, Mediterranean depth – a character that radiates warmth and power without appearing clumsy.

Home: Apulia and the Castel del Monte DOC

The variety is closely linked to Northern Apulia, where it finds its most impressive expressions, especially around the Castel del Monte DOC. The hot, dry climate and the mineral-rich soils of the region give the wines their unmistakable character.
