Vitae 2025: award for Masseria Cuturi

Vtae 2025: award for Masseria Cuturi: Associazione Italiana Sommelier awarded their Monte Diavoli 2020 with 4 Viti.

Primitivo di Manduria: the flagship wine of Masseria Cuturi.

Monte Diavoli and Chidro represent a selection of Primitivo, aged in wood and in bottle, to enhance complexity and elegance.

Monte Diavoli, what’s in the name?

Monte Diavoli: Monte Diavoli Is a rocky formation that stands isolated in the middle of a vast flat area dominated by the Mediterranean Macchia. In the past it was the place where the Messapi kept the sacred fire of the rites of fertility. Today as then it is a mysterious and fascinating place.

Masseria Cuturi…since 1881

We are talking about a family, originally from Veneto managing this beautiful estate in Puglia which includes a skilfully renovated farmhouse and many hectares of land. Among the woods, olive trees and vineyards. The Rossi-Chauvenets acquire a reality full of history. The farm, located in Manduria, was founded in 1881 and for centuries belonged to the Schiavoni family. It seems that the origin of Primitivo in the Mandurian land started precisely from Cuturi. Don Tommaso Schiavoni Tafuri married Countess Bianca Sabini of Altamura who brought Primitivo cuttings to these parts. This variety adapted very well to these soils and this climate and thus the famous Apulian wine was born.

The current vineyard is about 40 hectares and is particularly fertile thanks to the organic substance contained in the soils and the water of the Chidro River that flows there.

Masseria Cuturi emphasizes sustainable and organic farming practices to maintain the quality of their wines and preserve the environment. For the wines they use renewable energy, lighter bottles, and corks obtained from renewable raw materials derived from sugar cane.

The vinification of the best grapes today takes place within the Masseria, a few steps from the vineyards that generated them.

This proximity allows them to follow the maturation curve of each single particle with timeliness and precision. The cellar is made up of small tanks to obtain the micro-vinification of each single plot.
They use the aging in wood in moderation to enhance the natural characteristics of our wines. Bottling takes place in the cellar

A TOP WINE / VINO SLOW is the recognition to wines that represent an expression of place, originality, and history. A BEST BUY award is assigned to the wines with an excellent Quality-price ratio.

Slow Wine Editorial Team

A SNAIL is given to a winery “that we particularly like for the way it interprets Slow Food values (sensory perceptions, territory, environment, identity).” Their wines represent the terroir, have a good quality-price ratio considering the environment they are produced in and represent a paragon of sustainable viticulture! We can surely say that, among the prizes we assign every year, this one is the closest to our values."

In 1969 the Dubini family bought the property “Palazzone”, constructed by Cardinal Teodorico at the bidding of Pope Boniface VIII as a hostel for pilgrims on their way to Rome to celebrate the Jubilee of 1300 A.D.

The nature of the rocks of this area is made up of clays, silts and sands; 2.5 million years ago there was a seabed which have accumulated the finer sediments transported by ancient rivers that crossed what were then the few areas emerged.
24 hectares of vineyards planted on the hillside close to Orvieto, between 210 and 340 mts a.s.l. cultivated with the traditional grapes of Orvieto such as Procanico and Grechetto primarily, but also Verdello and Malvasia grapes.
