History

Villa Schinosa stands at the gates of Trani, an imposing house at the end of an oak-lined avenue, its cellar dug in 1884 partly into the local Pietra di Trani. The estate has been in the Capece Minutolo family for generations and is now led by the last heir, Corrado Capece Minutolo.

Across some sixty-five hectares of vineyard within a two-hundred-hectare estate, the family works Moscato Bianco — an ancient, probably Greek variety at home in Trani's limestone soils and coastal microclimate — making above all the sweet Moscato di Trani.
