Costa d’Amalfi DOC Puntacroce 2015 Raffaele Palma 75 cl

Description

History

Raffaele Palma’s company, located on the picturesque Amalfi Coast, was born in 2005 from an ambitious project by its owner. The land area extends from 50 meters below sea level to 450 meters above sea level. Part of the project included transforming an existing structure into a winery, bringing previously abandoned land back to life.

The company is dedicated to the organic production of wine, lemons and oil, guaranteeing the authenticity of their products. They have adopted a policy of preserving the territory, recovering abandoned olive and citrus groves and planting new vineyards, respecting the local flora and fauna. The area is characterized by an uncontaminated environment and is home to a variety of wild animals such as wild boars, badgers, snakes and hawks, demonstrating the purity of the environment and providing an ideal habitat for bees, which produce high quality honey.
