Azienda Vinicola Rivera Spa

Rivera winery was founded by Sebastiano de Corato in the late 1940s, inspired by a vision of realising the enormous viticultural potential of the calcareous hills of the Castel del Monte area. Widespread recognition quickly followed, and Rivera became the benchmark of Apulia wine production and the force driving its rebirth, thanks as well to innovations in both winemaking and vineyards. The 75 hectares of estate vineyards yield native grape varieties, such as Bombino nero, Nero di Troia, Montepulciano, and Aglianico, but international varieties as well, such as Chardonnay and Sauvignon blanc
