If you are passionate about culture and good wine, this is the tour for you.
The tour starts with a visit to the church of Santa Maria degli Angeli, a typical example of Greek Orthodox rite rock architecture, built in the steep part of the Gravina, probably between 700 and 800 but discovered only in the 50s of last century following the renovation of Via Fontana la Stella. You have to know that this church was originally known as Santa Maria delle Tombe, because of the tombs present both inside and outside the church. Moreover, this is the only rock church that has preserved, in the nave, the altar used during liturgical functions for the distribution of the Eucharist, called “ara”.
From here, you will walk along the Ponte Acquedotto, located on the ravine of the stream, joining the new city to the old one, which has been the protagonist of important film sets several times, such as in 2019 for the 007 movie “No Time to Die “, “Tolo Tolo” by Checco Zalone, “Pinocchio” by Garrone, “The Last Paradise” by Scamarcio, “Captain Maria”, “Maria Magdalena” and others.
Connected to the Ponte Acquedotto, thanks to the last remaining tower of the sixteenth-century walls, there is the so-called “Bastione Medievale”, which represented not only a means of defense, but also a meeting place for many Gravinesi given the possibility of supplying water and maybe exchange a few words. You have to know, in fact, that the bastions were defensive elements built around the 15th century and had the purpose of protecting the “cortine”, that is the straight stretches of wall more exposed to enemy attacks. Crossing the Bastion you can enjoy the suggestive view of the archaeological area of Petramagna and the countless caves that characterize the landscape of the opposite side of the Canyon.
Leaving the rocky part, you will move to the Cellar located in the Bosco Difesa Grande, one of the most important wooded complexes in Apulia, SCI (Site of Community Importance) since 1988, to start your visit to the vineyards, to the production and ageing area. Conclude your experience with a tasting of 3 wines and a “tagliere” (a selection of local cold cuts and cheeses, focaccia).
