Puglia Wine World – Tutta la Puglia del vino in un click
La storia di Gioia del Colle è legata all’imperatore svevo Federico II che, secondo la leggenda, nel castello fece rinchiudere la sua amatissima Bianca Lancia, accusata di adulterio. Ma il borgo ha origini antichissime e lo testimoniano i reperti di Monte Sannace e Santo Mola custoditi nel museo ospitato nel maniero.
Poco distanti Acquaviva delle Fonti, dove si producono cipolla rossa e cece nero, e Cassano Murge dove si fa il pieno di ossigeno tra gli alberi della Foresta Mercadante. Simbolo della vicina Sammichele di Bari è il Castello Caracciolo, sede del Museo della Civiltà contadina, ma non mancano golosità come zampina (salsiccia farcita), focaccia a libro e, naturalmente, vino. L’imponente castello caratterizza anche Sannicandro di Bari, patria delle olive dolci alle quali è dedicata una delle più golose sagre di Puglia. Interessante Grumo Appula per gli aspetti naturalistici dell’Oasi WWF Il Rifugio Mellito, esempio di ambiente stepposo della Murgia, il cui punto più alto è Santeramo in Colle, tappa per gustare la carne cotta al fornello.
Altamura è la città dell’unica cattedrale voluta in Puglia da Federico II. Da non perdere, l’assaggio di pane DOP e focaccia cotti in forni a legna e le escursioni al Pulo, la più grande dolina carsica dell’Alta Murgia, e al Centro visite Lamalunga, dove ci si trova al cospetto dell’Uomo di Altamura, una delle più straordinarie scoperte paleontologiche in Italia.
Immersa in una rigogliosa campagna si trova Turi, cittadina dove regnano sovrane la ciliegia Ferrovia e i dolcetti faldacchea. Putignano è famosa per il Carnevale più lungo del mondo, ma meritano una visita la Chiesa Matrice di San Pietro Apostolo, il Palazzo-Museo del Principe Romanazzi Carducci, la Grotta del Trullo, primo sito carsico aperto nel Sud Italia, e il Santuario di San Michele in Monte Laureto.
Sono imperdibili le Grotte di Castellana: tre chilometri di straordinaria bellezza tra stalattiti e stalagmiti nelle viscere della Puglia. E, a Castellana Grotte, le emozioni continuano in superficie con Indiana Park, parco avventura immerso in un bosco di querce.
Molto caratteristico il centro di Noci, con casette tinte a calce dai tetti a pignon e le “gnostre”, corti comuni in cui si sviluppava la vita del borgo dove oggi gustare vino e gli squisiti latticini.
Non lontana Adelfia, nata nel 1927 dalla fusione dei Comuni Canneto e Montrone. Per la festa del patrono San Trifone, dal 9 all’11 novembre, la cittadina si trasforma nella capitale dei fuochi di artificio.
A pochi chilometri Rutigliano, nota per la produzione di terracotta e fischietti che gli uomini donavano alle fidanzate: un’antica tradizione raccontata nel Museo Civico del Fischietto “Domenico Divella”. Celebre anche per il suo grano e l’uva da tavola.
Notevole l’interesse storico e artistico di Conversano che vanta un castello normanno trasformato nel ‘600 in dimora nobiliare dai conti Acquaviva d’Aragona, la cattedrale romanica e il complesso monastico di San Benedetto e nei dintorni le doline carsiche della Riserva naturale regionale dei Laghi di Conversano.
Il giro dedicato alla Puglia del vino DOP Primitivo di Gioia del Colle si chiude a Casamassima, definita Chefchaouen italiana per il centro storico medievale dipinto di azzurro.

We firmly believe that the internet should be available and accessible to anyone, and are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of circumstance and ability.
To fulfill this, we aim to adhere as strictly as possible to the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.1 (WCAG 2.1) at the AA level. These guidelines explain how to make web content accessible to people with a wide array of disabilities. Complying with those guidelines helps us ensure that the website is accessible to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.
This website utilizes various technologies that are meant to make it as accessible as possible at all times. We utilize an accessibility interface that allows persons with specific disabilities to adjust the website’s UI (user interface) and design it to their personal needs.
Additionally, the website utilizes an AI-based application that runs in the background and optimizes its accessibility level constantly. This application remediates the website’s HTML, adapts Its functionality and behavior for screen-readers used by the blind users, and for keyboard functions used by individuals with motor impairments.
If you’ve found a malfunction or have ideas for improvement, we’ll be happy to hear from you. You can reach out to the website’s operators by using the following email
Our website implements the ARIA attributes (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) technique, alongside various different behavioral changes, to ensure blind users visiting with screen-readers are able to read, comprehend, and enjoy the website’s functions. As soon as a user with a screen-reader enters your site, they immediately receive a prompt to enter the Screen-Reader Profile so they can browse and operate your site effectively. Here’s how our website covers some of the most important screen-reader requirements, alongside console screenshots of code examples:
Screen-reader optimization: we run a background process that learns the website’s components from top to bottom, to ensure ongoing compliance even when updating the website. In this process, we provide screen-readers with meaningful data using the ARIA set of attributes. For example, we provide accurate form labels; descriptions for actionable icons (social media icons, search icons, cart icons, etc.); validation guidance for form inputs; element roles such as buttons, menus, modal dialogues (popups), and others. Additionally, the background process scans all the website’s images and provides an accurate and meaningful image-object-recognition-based description as an ALT (alternate text) tag for images that are not described. It will also extract texts that are embedded within the image, using an OCR (optical character recognition) technology. To turn on screen-reader adjustments at any time, users need only to press the Alt+1 keyboard combination. Screen-reader users also get automatic announcements to turn the Screen-reader mode on as soon as they enter the website.
These adjustments are compatible with all popular screen readers, including JAWS and NVDA.
Keyboard navigation optimization: The background process also adjusts the website’s HTML, and adds various behaviors using JavaScript code to make the website operable by the keyboard. This includes the ability to navigate the website using the Tab and Shift+Tab keys, operate dropdowns with the arrow keys, close them with Esc, trigger buttons and links using the Enter key, navigate between radio and checkbox elements using the arrow keys, and fill them in with the Spacebar or Enter key.Additionally, keyboard users will find quick-navigation and content-skip menus, available at any time by clicking Alt+1, or as the first elements of the site while navigating with the keyboard. The background process also handles triggered popups by moving the keyboard focus towards them as soon as they appear, and not allow the focus drift outside it.
Users can also use shortcuts such as “M” (menus), “H” (headings), “F” (forms), “B” (buttons), and “G” (graphics) to jump to specific elements.
We aim to support the widest array of browsers and assistive technologies as possible, so our users can choose the best fitting tools for them, with as few limitations as possible. Therefore, we have worked very hard to be able to support all major systems that comprise over 95% of the user market share including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Opera and Microsoft Edge, JAWS and NVDA (screen readers).
Despite our very best efforts to allow anybody to adjust the website to their needs. There may still be pages or sections that are not fully accessible, are in the process of becoming accessible, or are lacking an adequate technological solution to make them accessible. Still, we are continually improving our accessibility, adding, updating and improving its options and features, and developing and adopting new technologies. All this is meant to reach the optimal level of accessibility, following technological advancements. For any assistance, please reach out to
