Cantine San Marzano is a leading winery in Puglia
founded in San Marzano di San Giuseppe by 19 winemakers in 1962
Located in the centre of the Primitivo di Manduria DOP
it has made its own wines using modern vinification methods since 1996
Winemakers Caterina Bellanova and Davide Ragusa
are responsible for carrying on the traditions of the region
Cantine San Marzano produces a range of wines intrinsic to the Puglian landscape: Verdeca
It also produces a sweet wine made from Primitivo in the region’s first DOCG: Primitivo di Manduria Dolce Naturale
planted on fine red soils rich in iron oxides over a limestone subsoil
this Primitivo di Manduria embodies the philosophy of the winery: original and contemporary yet paying respect to tradition
cherry and jam aromas followed by a full-bodied
12 months in French and American oak gives it a pleasant spiciness with notes of coffee
Cantine San Marzano’s Masseria Samia estate
The Collezione Cinquanta was conceived as a one-off wine to celebrate San Marzano’s 50th anniversary in 2012
but its popularity encouraged the winery to make it a permanent part of the range
A non-vintage blend of indigenous red varieties
primarily Primitivo and Negroamaro sourced from old bush vines
Collezione Cinquanta has no regional indication and is labelled simply as Vino d’Italia
Yet it speaks of the land and the winemakers’ expertise
and a Gold Medal at the 2019 Decanter World Wine Awards is testament to its quality
This is a powerul wine displaying beautiful balance and complex notes of red fruits
It spends 12 months in barrel before bottling
San Marzano invested in the abandoned fields of Masseria Samia in Salento on the Ionian coast
Transformed into a sustainably managed 120ha estate of mostly experimental vineyards
the winery pursues research projects such as enhancing the genetic diversity of long-lost varieties and clones
The data collected from these projects and from numerous weather stations benefits all of San Marzano’s wines
helping to predict the best time for harvest
The surroundings have been planted with a wide range of hardy Mediterranean flowers
herbs and trees in order to create a ‘green-lung’ for the area
facilitating the winery’s aim of creating a fully self-sustaining environment
Easily identified by the restored 16th century manor house at its heart

Naples
Naples is quickly becoming one of the hottest spots in Italy (and we don’t just mean the weather. Although, that too). Last year we voted it the best city for food in the world
but it’s not just the pizza and pasta that make sit so popular – it’s the world-renowned museums
the piazzas full of life in the evenings and so much more
the best of the city comes out when you’re able to get under its skin. And that’s what we’ve got here.
Naples is the third-largest city in Italy and one of the oldest
You’ll want to dedicate at least three days to exploring its history
this is an incredibly walkable and densely compacted city
so you’ll have plenty of time to hit attraction after attraction – and still have a whole evening for pizza
Thanks for subscribing! Look out for your first newsletter in your inbox soon!
What is it? The Archaeological Museum houses Naples’s most significant collection of Roman remains and displays much of the loot uncovered during the Pompeii and Herculaneum digs.
Why go? It may hold a treasure trove of ancient artefacts and statues, which when taken together, laid the foundations for the western canon of art as we know it today, but it’s the erotic art from Pompeii hidden in a tucked-away room that’s the real draw here.
🤫 Insider tip: Book tickets online to ensure immediate entry and avoid longer lines at the box office. The museum is closed every Tuesday, and entry is free on the first Sunday of each month (but expect massive crowds even in the earliest hours).
Address: Piazza Museo 19, 80135 Naples, Italy
What is it? Over in the west of the city, a spacious piazza is home to the almost brutalist-looking façade of a church called Gesù Nuovo. Take some time out and explore its ridiculously opulent interiors.
Why go? Learn more about Dr Giuseppe Moscati, who dedicated his career in the early 19th century to healing the poor. Thanks to a miracle or two, he was made a saint in 1987.
🤫 Insider tip: Look closely for Saint Giuseppe Moscati’s chapel inside the main church, where his tomb and preserved quarters rest with his original personal belongings and medical instruments on display.
Address: Piazza del Gesù Nuovo 2, 80134 Naples, Italy
Photograph: Jenny CardenWhat is it? Well, only the best pizza in the entire world, according to our 2025 global pizza ranking.
there’s plenty of pizza in Naples (and a lot of it is insanely good)
But if you want to try a simple but perfect pizza pie
we suggest starting with the small but mighty Pizzeria da Attilio
a third-generation pizzeria that’s been around since 1938
Order the margherita with San Marzano tomatoes
and be prepared to sound something like that lady from Eat Pray Love when she took her own first bite
you should try five more. Click ‘read more’ for our best pizzerias in the city.
What is it? A meeting point for the young and thirsty of Naples
this bar-lined square bubbles over with students
locals and tourists come aperitivo time (and beyond)
There are some ancient ruins left casually unprotected – and often covered in rubbish – at the square’s centre
Why go? The walls at Intra Moenia are covered with rows upon rows of vintage postcards and curios
then claim a table outside to sit back and tipple as the crowds gather
🤫 Insider tip: Don’t fall for an overpriced spritz at any bar
morning coffee shop Caffè dell'Epoca transforms into an afternoon cocktail bar called Peppe & Giulio Spritz
Head over for the €4 spritzes and take part in of one of the most electric crowds in Naples.
What once was an old parking lot with a discoloured mural dating back to the 1990s in Naples’s historic neighbourhood
the Quartieri Spagnoli has transformed into a cultural symbol and restored mural that celebrates the city’s deep bond between the legendary Argentine footballer
where Maradona played with Napoli Calcio in the 1980s
leading the team to win two historic championships.
Venture to the top of Via Emanuele de Deo and experience the energetic scene of Diego fan pilgrimage of visitors from all over the world
venture into the small square selling Maradona merchandise
and grab a €2 spritz at one of the bustling corner bars blaring Neomelodic music.
Photograph: ShutterstockWhat is it? Escape the city noise and climb up to the Capodimonte district where you’ll find the Capodimonte Museum
this Bourbon palace was initially built for King Charles of Bourbon in the 18th century
it has become a central hub for art and culture
where you can enjoy one of the most exclusive art collections in Europe.
This museum is a two–for–one since not every museum is housed in a royal palace
It offers a glimpse of life in Naples during the Bourbon era with masterpieces from renowned artists like Caravaggio and Titian
The hilltop location offers sweeping views of the entire city and the Bay of Naples
What is it? You know about Pompeii already
but it is genuinely overwhelming in real life
The town’s perfectly preserved streets remain eerie despite rivalling the footfall of Oxford Circus on a Saturday
Why go? Always nice to be reminded that humans are ultimately at the mercy of Mother Nature
Few things say carpe diem like the plaster cast of a corpse of a Pompeiian who’d been looting a jewellery shop
What is it? At the less-heralded end of Via Tribunali in the Forcella district
you’ll find the dinky chapel of Pio Monte della Misericordia
home to one of the only Caravaggio paintings still left in situ.
Why go? Compete with your travelling partner to spot the ‘seven acts of mercy’ depicted in Caravaggio’s most famous Neapolitan work
Or work together; the world has enough competitive anger
Photograph: @sfogliatelleattanasio / InstagramWhat is it? In good Neapolitan fashion, each morning should start with something sweet, so indulge in the city’s most iconic and notable pastry treat: sfogliatella. For nearly 100 years, Sfogliatelle Attanasio bakery has been the ultimate spot to eat these flaky pastries with rich
A few steps away from the Garibaldi train station
Sfogliatelle Attanasio is conveniently located
the bakery turns fresh sfogliatella out of the oven and into the hands of customers every ten minutes
Expect one hot with intoxicating aromas of orange zest.
Beneath the heat and bustle of Naples’s streets is an old quarry that became a burial site in the 17th century when a plague wiped out 250,000 of the city’s residents
Though the Fontanelle cemetery’s piles of bones are undeniably unnerving
the local tradition of caring for a lost soul’s skull lends the place a very spiritual feel.
Watch for the odd Italian nonna on her way to tend to her designated skeleton in the hope of releasing its soul to heaven in return for a wish

Next step: Trying not to eat them all at once.Deborah Baic/The Globe and Mail
like leaden fruitcake and overcooked turkey
like Andrea Mastrandrea's Zeppole di San Giuseppe
It's impossible to imagine giving up their taste
They learned to make them by feel and smell
to which he adds freshly grated orange zest
and orange blossom oil that he imports from southern Italy in brown glass apothecary jugs
the bakery he opened last November inside Alimento
an Italian food emporium on Toronto's King Street West
expensive restaurants and modernist furniture stores
It's a long way from the family bakery in Woodbridge
Mastrandrea says what his father once told him: "If it's a great product
Giuseppe Mastrandrea learned to bake as a boy
then as a seminarian at monasteries in Sienna
Andrea added two extra baskets of fruit to his father's gelato
It's the sort of thing he was always doing
But he worked days in the bakery to pay for his studies at the University of Toronto
in refusing to change or experiment from the moment he arrived in Toronto in the late 1960s
but he thinks his father saw the change in him
Andrea practised architecture after graduating but spent his free time baking
a friend who is a top city pastry chef (she was at Susur for four years
then at JS Bonbons and Xococava) to work alongside him
and the pair began working out of Giuseppe Mastrandrea's hand-written recipe books
And a lot of what he knows he doesn't entirely understand yet

whose family is descended from the son of the national hero
A chance meeting between two journalists these days has revealed that one of the descendants of Gjergj Kastrioti-Skënderbeu lives and works in Foggia in Puglia
but his name tells everything: his name is Loris Castriota Skanderbegh and he does not hide that he comes from the family of the "chief prince of Arbër"
The following is the interview of the journalist Scinicariello with him
which was published in the newspaper "Il mattino di Foggia"
thank you very much for deciding to accept this interview
After I met you in Foggia during the visit with the participation of the media "Foggia Svelata" (Foggia revealed) and after discovering your last name
Tell me what connections you have with the Albanian hero Gjergj Kastrioti-Skënderbeu
In Albania it is a really important symbol
My family lives in Pulja since his son came here
The Castriotes first received the fiefs of Monte Sant'Angelo and San Giovanni Rotondo
then exchanged them for the fiefs of Galatina and Soleto
What is the relationship between the Albanian hero and Pulja
Skanderbeg's historical relations with Pula are important
although this is known only to history researchers
Albanians and the inhabitants of Arbëresh communities
historical Italian-Albanian "colonies" that settled in the center-south of Italy in the past centuries and where they are preserved historical memory
grateful for the help King Alfonso of Naples gave him in his fight against the Ottoman invasion attempts
between August 1461 and February 1462 personally came to Pula to support the new King Ferrante of Aragon
who ascended to throne after the death of his father Alfonso in 1458 and was experiencing great difficulties
Ferrante was engaged in suppressing the attempted conquest of the kingdom by Giovanni of the Angevins
and had convinced many great feudal lords to rise up in revolt
taking advantage of a truce with the sultan
came to repay the debt of honor he owed to the Aragonese dynasty
with a body of about 700 horsemen and an unknown number of footmen
which effectively reversed the fortunes of the conflict
to the point that it led Ferrante to victory on August 18 at Troia
a decisive victory to maintain control of the kingdom
This was an occasion to strengthen the ties between the Castriot family and the Aragon family
to move to the Kingdom of Naples in order not to become victims of the sultan's revenge
which was ending the conquest of Albanian territory
Is the Albanian community in Pulja very large today
those founded or repopulated by the historical Italian-Albanian community: San Marzano di San Giuseppe (Taranto)
Casalvecchio di Puglia (Foggia) and Chieuti (Foggia)
a little more than 12 thousand inhabitants and you all speak the language that has been transmitted over five centuries in those areas
Today we have a serious problem of preserving the language
traditions and cultural identity: a historical and folkloric heritage
which is in danger of disappearing in the face of the standardization of globalized knowledge and the gradual disappearance of the custom of the Arberesh people to marry only among themselves and by transmitting doke and language in everyday life
you are a journalist and you deal with the communications department at the mayor's office
you accompanied us to the City Museum and did not hide your love for that place and for the city
Do you think that Foggia still has an unexpressed potential at the tourist level
Is there anything more that can be done to showcase this city and attract visitors from all over Italy and
Foggia has many unknown aspects even for its inhabitants
who have maintained an almost unbelieving attitude towards the importance and historical-artistic beauty of their city
It is the result of negative events that have happened in Foggia over the years
such as the devastating earthquake of 1731 or the Allied bombings in the summer of 1943
Foggia has preserved many interesting testimonies of the past
which will they liked even the "hardest" tourists: it is important to have a competent
the municipal administration has done a lot "indirectly"
organizing attractive events such as "Libando"
an annual meeting with concerts of the greatest musicians
to attract visitors to fall in love with Foggia too or to stop or return here to get to know it better
how do you see the development of tourism in recent years
are beginning to arrive in the Land of Eagles
especially during the summer and especially in the coastal areas of the center and south of Albania: this is due to the unpolluted beaches
the accommodation structures that are improving more and more lot and really competitive prices
But when tourists discover that there are things to see in the interior
Albania will become a first-rate destination for those who love beauty in every corner of the planet
is there a connection or something that unites Pula with Albania
which is not only related to the "geographic latitude" in which the two territories are located: we are Mediterranean peoples and we share customs and ways of life
I would add that today's Puglia people are descended from the Illyrian tribes
starting from the first millennium BC: the Dauns (present-day province of Foggia)
the Peucets (in present-day central Puglia) and Mesapes (in Salento)
All of them were called Japigs and the people of Pulje owe them an important part of their ancestral culture
This connection was renewed during the migrations of the 15th century and was kept alive by the Albanian communities
but it was "revived" by the arrival of new Albanian immigrants in the 90s and today it has gained new strength thanks to the intensification of relations institutional between Pula and Albania and for the fact that the port and airport of Bari are points of arrival and departure between the two territories
this is a bond that has never gone away and will continue to strengthen in the future
