LOCAL AGRICULTURAL PRODUCERS UNION
AGRICULTURAL COOPERATIVE COMPANY (UPAL)

SME

On August 27, 1956, twenty-two wine producers came together to set up the Cantina Sociale di Cisternino. The territory of the Itria Valley has always been cultivated with vineyards and olive groves with a competence that has been refined over time. Here the vine finds its ideal environment in the hills and in the nature of the soil, producing a red wine with a delicate aroma, a clear flavor, extremely pleasant and soft. White wine has the scent of Malvasia and a harmonious and velvety flavor.
The Upal Social Winery has prepared a tasting room perfect for welcoming groups who want to visit our company and through wine tastings also savor the gastronomic tradition of the Itria Valley.

A person in charge will explain the choices made during the planting phase and all the aspects, anecdotes, scientific notions of the grape life cycle.
Visit the cellar where the processes of fermentation, vinification, ageing and preparation for bottling will be explained in detail.
Tasting of the wines of our production combined with gastronomic products of our tradition.

Direct sale in the cellar is foreseen.
