A Mano

The estate in Apulia is a source for delicious, value priced wines. Owners Mark Shannon and Elevezia Sbalchiero fashion fruit driven wines that offer irresistible appeal. ANTONIO GALLONI

Californian enologist Mark Shannon makes the wines here. By his own confession, he has been "taken prisoner by the natives". The style is international, aiming at fruit driven wines that can be drunk young. STEPHEN TANZER
