Marchesana is Polvanera's fresh, youthful range. This red uses Negroamaro alone, with fruit from Masseria Scorace in Crispiano.

This Negroamaro grows in red, iron-rich soil over limestone at Masseria Scorace, Crispiano. The winery is based in Gioia del Colle.
Italian wine law sorts bottles into a pyramid. DOCG sits at the top: tightly drawn boundaries, prescribed grapes, mandatory ageing, government tasting before release. DOC is the same idea with looser thresholds. IGT (Indicazione Geografica Tipica) is broader still, requiring only that 85% of the grapes come from the named territory.
Puglia is in the IGT tier. That is not a quality verdict, it is a description of how much freedom the producer has at vinification and ageing.
Puglia IGT is the region-wide label, so the grapes can come from anywhere in Puglia.
Winery
Gioia del Colle
Wine area
Made at Cantine Polvanera, Gioia del Colle. Directions
Polvanera uses steel tanks for Marchesana, avoiding the cost of oak barrels for this wine.
Polvanera harvests this Negroamaro by machine, reducing the hand-picking work needed for the crop.
Polvanera gives the yield as nine tonnes per hectare, spreading the vineyard work across that crop.
Marchesana uses organic grapes, adding certification and oversight to vineyard work; Polvanera does not put a figure on that cost.
Polvanera names baked pasta, cured meats, veal and pork among the food matches for this Negroamaro. Its freshness is useful across that range.
The fresh acidity in Marchesana keeps pace with tomato sauce. Its cherry fruit gives the red a clear voice alongside the richer cheese and meat in lasagne.
Try with: Pasta alla Norma · Lasagna · Ragu alla bolognese · More pairings →
Marchesana has the freshness to clear a mouthful of cheese and the fruit to meet tomato. Keep hot toppings modest so the chilli does not drown out its rose and cherry notes.
Try with: Pizza Margherita · Pizza Marinara · Pizza Romana · More pairings →
The firm tannin in this Negroamaro softens against meat. Its bright fruit and citrus close keep rich pork from making the match feel heavy.
Try with: Porchetta · Cotoletta alla Milanese · Cotoletta alla bolognese · More pairings →
The juicy fruit in Marchesana gives a contrast to salty cured meat. Its acidity refreshes the mouth after fatty slices, while the lack of oak keeps the match direct.
Try with: Salami · Prosciutto · Mortadella · Olives
Fresh fruit and no oak make Marchesana useful with lighter meats as well as pork. Its tannin still needs a savoury dish, so choose food with more depth than a plain leaf salad.
Try with: Roast chicken · Coniglio alla ligure · Vitello Tonnato
The tannin in Marchesana can feel harsh next to raw fish. Fierce chilli also takes the focus away from its fine rose scent and fresh cherry fruit.
Skip with: Oysters · Sashimi · Szechuan beef · Pairing guide →
Drink the 2024 now or keep it within its window to 2030. The case for this Negroamaro is fresh fruit at the table, with no need for decades of ageing.
Best in the years above; holds without falling over either side.
A short splash decant softens the first-pour edge and opens the aromatics.
Aim for the cooler end on a warm day; warmer end opens up more aromatics.
Marchesana is made for a youthful style, with a 2025 to 2030 drinking window for the 2024.
