Located in the Salento region of Puglia and named after its founder, Cantine Paolo Leo officially began in 1989 after Paolo inherited the family land and constructed the Palmento (the village’s first stone building used for the production of wine specifically). While the opening of the Paolo Leo winery marked a new chapter for the family, their story and legacy in viticulture can be traced back to the early 20th Century in Monticello Masseria. This story and legacy have ultimately resulted in a philosophy driven by family, hard work, and a love for quality wines.
Today this philosophy is upheld by Paolo and his wife Roberta as they prepare their eldest sons Nicola and Stefano to take over and lead the next generation of winegrowers. This makes them the perfect balance between traditional and modern as each generation stands to learn something from the other.

Another new KWM exclusive from Jed Steele's Shooting Star lineup, this red wine boasts quality and affordability. A predominant varietal in Californian vineyards, Zinfandel is characterized by having spicy and bold flavours without overly heavy tannins.
Grapes are sustainably farmed at some of the top vineyard plots in the Lake County region before they are crushed for fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Eight months in a combination of Hungarian and French oak barrels enhances the richness of the wine while also softening the existing tannins.
Steele resides just of Clear Lake in the Lake County District, northwest of Sacramento and just south of the Mendocino National Forest.

Benvolio Prosecco is an excellent expression of both the variety and the terroir. This wine is a sharp golden straw color with bubbles that are finely textured and persistent. The nose shows fresh citrus with slight hints of honey and fresh flowers. Vibrant on the palate, the crisp acidity acts as a counterpoint to the flavors of ripe citrus, fresh peaches, lemon, green apples, and grapefruit. The finish is light, refreshing, and crisp. Perfect to pair with fresh seafood, soft cheese and to sip on its own,

Although Pinot Grigio is more common in Northern regions such as Veneto and Friuli, there is something to be said about producers growing Pinot Grigio in the South. With the right soil, proper care, and a knowledgeable (and talented) winemaker, Pinot Grigio from Puglia can be a fresh and fruity summer sip. Perfect to be served as an aperitif or complement to summer seafood dishes.
