Masseria Mita

Masseria Mita

An Ancient Estate Where History, Fine Vineyards, and Centuries-Old Olive Groves Meet.

Masseria Mita, owned by Vincenzo and Maria Imperatrice, belonged in the early 1600s to the Monastery of Purità of Martina Franca and is located at the foot of the Murgia Tarantina, in a landscape of great beauty, enriched by the scent of Mediterranean scrub. The estate features a typical enclosed courtyard with dry stone walls, a “Jazzo” and an 18th-century threshing floor, a defensive guardhouse, and a private chapel dedicated to the Immaculate Conception, all reflecting a deep connection between historic architecture and the territory.
