The history of this farm is ancient and modern at the same time. It's the history of the renovation of a settled profession implemented by people who, acting resolutely with tenacity and a touch of craziness, accepted the challenge to make up tradition and innovation, thanks to the willpower and to the farsightedness of trusting in their own work.

 
The farm Villa Schinosa, sized 200 hectares, is located in the neighbours of Trani. Visitors perceive this fascinating structure at the end of a oak path. Recently vineyards have been renewed. The ancient cellar built in 1884, bored into the Stone of Trani, has been renovated introducing production facilities that place the farm in the forefront of wine-making industry. A similar process involved the business management improving final results.
 

The owner, Don Ferdinando Capece Minutolo dei Duchi di San Valentino, supported by his son Corrado, runs the production, while his wife Maria holds business relations.

Centuries-old and modern mono-cone olive groves, placed side by side to optimize the quality of the "extra virgin" olive oil, as well as cherries and almonds trees, biological certified, encircle the ancient family residence "Masseria", lovely above all when the bouganvillea is in full blooming.
