<p><strong>Puglia Wine Delights  </strong>มื้อนี้มาชิมไวน์อิตาเลียน เป็นไวน์ดี สดชื่น ดื่มสบาย ราคาจับต้องได้จากแคว้นปูเลีย &#8211; Puglia หรือเรียกอีกชื่อว่า ปูลยา  ที่ห้องอาหาร Attico โรงแรม Radisson Blu</p>
<p>ย้อนไปเมื่อ 4  ปีที่แล้ว  แคว้นปูเลีย จับมือกับสถานทูตอิตาลี  บินมาเปิดตัวการท่องเที่ยวอย่างเป็นทางการในไทยด้วยแคมเปญที่ชื่อว่า Sawasdee Puglia   ทำเอาวงการทัวร์ตื่นตัวคึกคักรวมไปถึงนักท่องเที่ยว โดยปูเลียเป็นแคว้นทางตอนใต้ของอิตาลี ติด<b>ทะเล</b>เอเดรียติก (ส่วนหนึ่งของทะเลเมดิเตอร์เรเนียน) ทางด้านฝั่งตะวันออก  มองแผนที่ก็คือส่วนที่เป็นส้นของรองเท้าบูทนั่นเอง</p>
<p><span id="more-28657"></span> แคว้นนี้ดูรูปแล้วอยากไป  บ้านเมืองน่ารัก บรรยากาศดีงามติดชายทะเล ที่สำคัญนักท่องเที่ยวยังไม่เยอะ ราคายังไม่แพงมาก เมื่อเทียบกับเมืองใหญ่อื่น ๆ ของอิตาลี</p>

<p>นอกจากเมืองหลวงชื่อ Bari  มีเมืองน่าท่องเที่ยวหลายเมือง  สวยงามต่างกันไป  อาทิ  Lecce อลังการด้วยสถาปัตยกรรมแบบบาโรก  Ostuni เมืองสีขาวบนเนินเขาจากยุคกลาง  โรแมนติคมาก  หมู่บ้าน Alberobello กับบ้านทรงกรวยสีขาวหนึ่งเดียวในโลกที่ได้มรดกโลกไปเรียบร้อย   นี่แค่เบาะ ๆ  ยังไม่นับชายหาดบริสุทธิ์ โขดหินสวย ให้สำราญใจ เสน่ห์พื้นบ้านที่ยังไม่ถูกกลืน  อาหารอร่อย  ซีฟู้ดเลิศด้วยพื้นที่ติดแนวชายฝั่งทะเลที่ยาวเหยียด  และสุดท้ายไวน์ดี ๆ ที่เป็นไฮไลท์ของค่ำคืนนี้</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><b><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Photo_2.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-27094" alt="Photo_2" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Photo_2-693x1024.jpg" width="474" height="700" /></a></b></p>
<p><b>Tenuta Viglione’s wines launched in Bangkok </b><i>The organic Italian winery celebrated the start of operation in Thailand at Sofitel Sukhumvit </i></p>
<p>The Italian winery Tenuta Viglione recently presented a selection of premium organic wines to a public of traders and wine-lovers in the slick atmosphere of the swimming pool area of the Sofitel Sukhumvit Hotel. A networking event to celebrate the landing of Viglione’s organic wines in Thailand, with a selection of 3 different organic labels &#8211; two red and one white wine.</p>
<p><span id="more-27092"></span>Tenuta Viglione is a family-run winery with a quite limited production on over 160 hectares. The winery was established in 1937 by the grandfather of the current owner and produces organic wines since 1987. It is based in Puglia, which is an Italian south-eastern region, in the area of the Gioia del Colle PDO (Protected Denomination of Origin). Vineyards are located on an average altitude of 400 meters above the sea level, where the thermic excursion between day and night grants to the wine a marked acidity. On the other hand, the clayey and calcareous soil gives the wines of this area their typical minerality.</p>
<p>These notes are particularly clear in the <b>Verdeca Maioliche 2021</b>, with its signature fresh, sapid, and mineral palate combined with the characteristic nose of aromatic herbs, notes of citrus and peach, and bright straw-yellow colour, tending to golden.</p>
<p>From the same collection, also <b>Nero di Troia 2021</b> was presented, with its typical ruby red colour, evolving to garnet with the aging, the rich and spicy aromas of blackberry and cherry in spirit, and its enchanting and full taste, elegant tannins and fulfilling sapidity.</p>
<p>The third wine offered for the tasting was the surprising <b>Susumaniello Morso Rosso 2021</b>, part of the “Prestige” collection: floral and punchy aromatics, showing cherry, violet and black olive. Big and bold style with taut acidity and refined tannins make this wine particularly elegant, but still fresh and balanced.</p>
<p>Overall, the three wines are made in purity by native Apulian grapes which are quite unusual in Thailand – where the best-known Apulian varieties are Primitivo and Negroamaro.</p>
<p>“Our range of wines encompasses of course other great red wines of Puglia, for instance the multiply awarded Marpione Gioia del Colle Primitivo PDO”, explains the SEA Marketing Director <b>Ruenruedee Prachayaphruet</b>. “But we chose to start with these three varieties to emphasize how wide and still unknown the wine production of Puglia is – and how many hidden gems are to be discovered. Apulian wine today is capable of showing off widespread quality at a level that surprises even the most experienced taster, and the best results are probably achieved with local varieties that are grown there since centuries, if not millennia”.</p>
<p>The labels presented in Bangkok are available in Thailand already, in a range of well selected restaurants and hotels, but the goal for the next months is to increase their number with a wider choice of red, rosé, and sparkling wines.</p>

<p><strong>Primitivo of Gioia del Colle</strong> is a well-known, internationally coveted wine. With a limited production of only 1 to 1.5 million bottles per year, it is gaining consensus worldwide within wine specialists, guides, and international fairs. A valuable quality niche which is recently getting pace in Thailand as well, where a rich agenda of tasting sessions and wine masterclasses was organized in Bangkok since July 2020, through a project funded by the European Union, the Italian Ministry of Agriculture, and Puglia Region. Along with other activities, a promotional video presenting the features of this remarkable area in the South of Italy and directed by Luca Desiderato was launched yesterday for the Thai market. The video was shot in Gioia del Colle and it is conceived as a journey through the architectural and naturalistic beauties of this part of Italy where this outstanding Primitivo is produced. A lucky circumstance wanted the Italian word &#8220;Gioia&#8221; to mean &#8220;Joy&#8221; in English: the video plays with this coincidence until the final epilogue. The testimonial chosen for the campaign is the Thai entrepreneur Ruenruedee Prachayaphruet – who first started importing the Primitivo Gioia del Colle DOC into Thailand in 2019.</p>
<p><span id="more-20743"></span>Let us discover how and where this success story started.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Drone_3.jpeg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20762" alt="Drone_3" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/Drone_3-1024x576.jpeg" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>In the traditional way of imagining Italy as a boot, Puglia is the South-Eastern part which lies down from the “spur” (Gargano”) to the “heel” (Salento). The “Gioia del Colle DOC” area is in Bari province, encompassing 16 different municipalities in the heart of Puglia: a land where green fields, olive groves, and woods meet the blue sky in an intact landscape without borders.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/1-Tratturo1.png"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20765" alt="1) Tratturo" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/1-Tratturo1-1024x576.png" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>The Designation is situated inside the zone known as the plateau of the Murge, an extensive limestone area of about 200 square Km, with an average altitude of around 450 metres above sea level, modelled by a complex karst system. Karst is a process of disintegration of rocks by rainwater, in which the waters that flow to the surface grind the soil and disappear underground, giving rise to underground rivers and lakes.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/7-Fontana1.png"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20758" alt="7) Fontana" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/7-Fontana1-1024x576.png" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>The total extension of the Designation area is approximately 1,200 hectares, out of which 400 hectares of vineyards to produce 9 types of wines: “Primitivo” and “Primitivo Riserva” are undoubtedly the most important and significant among them.</p>
<p>Out of 400 hectares of vineyards, 250 are dedicated to Primitivo, and despite the requirement of a maximum yield of 8 tons per hectare, the effective yield per hectare is much lower, slightly more than half of this, about 4,5 tons per hectare.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/3-Vigna1.png"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20755" alt="3) Vigna" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/3-Vigna1-1024x576.png" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>Primitivo of Gioia del Colle is a Mediterranean wine that is also fresh. A full-bodied wine, but easy to drink at the same time. These elements are driving more and more this Designation under the international spotlight.</p>
<p>This new market position was gained across the world in the last 10 years, resulting in a growth both in the quality of the products and in the awareness of the producers that they live in an area where the soil, climate, altitude, and vine combine to create unique and inimitable wines.</p>
<p>Key-factor of success is the renewed focus on the old bush-trained vineyards of Puglia, crucial both in terms of quality and of long-term planning. The rediscovery of the old bush-trained vineyards is driving the installation and the development of new vineyards which can support the production also from a quantitative point of view, bringing it to a significant critical mass for the International market.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/4-Bottiglia1.png"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20756" alt="4) Bottiglia" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/4-Bottiglia1-1024x576.png" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>The dominant soils of the Designation are clayey and clayey-silty, with a high presence of stones (up to 60% of total constituents) and consist of residues resulting from the dissolution of limestone rocks, compounds of oxides and hydroxides of iron and aluminium. The limited content of nutrient elements makes them particularly suitable for a high-quality viticulture.</p>
<p>They are ideal soils &#8211; for their richness in potassium and the relative poverty of organic substance &#8211; for the cultivation of grape varieties suitable for producing high-quality red wines but are able also to give excellent white grapes.</p>
<p>The vine has its roots in the limestone layer immediately below the thin layer of fertile soil, and this allows it to achieve naturally low yields per hectare, a great minerality and a good acidity.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grappolo.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20766" alt="grappolo" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/grappolo-1024x1016.jpg" width="474" height="470" /></a></p>
<p>Primitivo is a quite vigorous native, black-skinned grape variety from Puglia, probably native of Dalmatia, from where it is believed it was brought to Puglia by the Illyrians about 3,000 years ago.</p>
<p>Wine production in Puglia is well known to have been thriving throughout the Roman period. After the fall of the Roman Empire wine making was preserved, as in most of Europe, mainly thanks to the vineyards cultivated in the grounds of monasteries and abbeys.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/5-leone1.png"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20757" alt="5) leone" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/5-leone1-1024x576.png" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>The Emperor Frederick II the Swabian made the production resurged, so much so that in 1362 the queen Joanna I of Naples proclaimed a law to protect wine from Puglia that prohibited the introduction in the Kingdom of foreign wines.</p>
<p>The reputation of these wines was consolidated in the following centuries: the paramount textbook of the antiquity was the “Natural History of Wines” by Andrea Bacci, published in 1596, which describes the wines produced in the area of Bari as the benchmark (&#8220;optimum quality&#8221;).</p>
<p>The first to identify Primitivo and to make a sort of mass selection of the grape was the monk Francesco Filippo Indellicati. Born in 1767 and agronomist, he noticed some old vines among the many wine grapes present in the countryside of a variety that matured before the others and that seemed to have better adapted to the red soil of these areas. He decided to give the variety the Latin name of Primativus (First-ripe) which in Italian became &#8220;Primitivo&#8221;, and he carefully selected a large number of branches (625) which he planted in eight vineyard &#8220;districts&#8221;, creating the first monoculture of Primitivo grapes on record.</p>
<p><a href="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/2-Drone-di-gioia-generale-1.png"><img class="alignnone size-large wp-image-20754" alt="2) Drone di gioia generale" src="http://commecestbon.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/2-Drone-di-gioia-generale-1-1024x576.png" width="474" height="266" /></a></p>
<p>Starting from the XIX Century, the success of this variety was on track:</p>
<p>- Since 1820 there are historical records of the beginning of the mass cultivation of Primitivo</p>
<p>- in 1882 the first wine company in the countryside of Santeramo in Colle was established, and a large part of vermouth wine around the world was made of Primitivo</p>
<p>- in 1962 the first bottle of Primitivo di Gioia del Colle was labelled for the sale in the international market</p>
<p>- in 1987 the Designation of Origin (DOC) Primitivo di Gioia del Colle was launched</p>
<p>- in 2000 the Consortium of Producers was established.</p>
<p>As of today, the Consortium aggregates 72 members, representing 87% of the current production in every single step of it: producers, winemakers, and stakeholders.</p>
<p>The Consortium promotes the awareness of the Designation brand in Italy and abroad and undertakes checks over the quality of the production, enhancing the skills of producers in introducing technology and up-to-date knowledge in farming, according to the highest international standards.</p>
<p>The growth of a new generation of winemakers and entrepreneurs, along with the improvement of high-end training systems, are two of the top priorities for the coming years.</p>
