Castello Monaci
🍷 A Special Puglia Discovery — Castello Monaci 🍷
During our recent trip to Puglia, Italy, we had the absolute pleasure of being welcomed to Castello Monaci by Pino.
We arrived without a reservation, and despite having both a w**e tasting and a wedding event already underway, Pino graciously took the time to greet us, share several of their incredible w**es, pair them with delicious local foods, and even provide a quick tour of the stunning property.
What a beautiful surprise it was when we returned home and zoomed in on one of our photos to learn that Castello Monaci literally means "Monks' Castle." The estate owes its name to a historic settlement of monks that once occupied the property. As owners of Monk's W**e & Liquor Cave, we couldn't help but feel an instant connection!
📍 If Puglia is on your travel agenda, we highly recommend visiting this magnificent estate. Not only are they known for producing exceptional w**es, but the property is also one of the region's most sought-after wedding venues.
🍷 And if a trip to Italy isn't in your immediate plans, you can still experience a taste of Castello Monaci right here in Fort Lauderdale!
We're currently featuring their delicious Kreos Rosé, made from Negroamaro grapes and absolutely perfect for these hot South Florida summer days.
A special thank you again to Pino and everyone at Castello Monaci for their hospitality. We look forward to bringing even more of their wonderful w**es to Monk's W**e & Liquor Cave in the future.
