With their original features and distinctive aesthetic, the Masseria and its various areas make the perfect venue for your elegant events: with a spacious paved farmyard, a converted barn and not one but two striking courtyards, the Masseria offers a variety of charming settings where you can enjoy unforgettable moments with your loved ones. We’re just outside Martina Franca, the ‘pearl of the Baroque’, close to Taranto, the historic ‘city of two seas’ and home to the MarTa Archeological museum.
EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES
Masseria Palesi Rural Exclusive is the ideal location for holding exclusive events and enjoying intense experiential moments through workshops, guided experiences and day-trips.
ACTIVITIES
The Masseria is a hands-on experience. Come and discover our low environmental impact agriculture, and enjoy culinary and naturalistic experiences aimed at creating a sense of regeneration through an authentic connection with the land. Whether you follow a nature trail or go on a jog through the woods, you’ll have the opportunity to really recharge and reconnect at a deeper level – all of this, within easy reach of Martina Franca, the ‘pearl of the Baroque’ and Taranto, city of the two seas.
THE VINEYARD
The Masseria retains its original purpose. Today it is still one of the most interesting historical farming estates, and now specialises in growing organic grapes to produce high-quality IGP and DOP wines. The vineyard is completely organic and managed by an expert team of agronomists and oenologists. Traditional techniques are used to fertilise the vines, such as green manure with legumes and cereal grown here at the farm.
Grape harvest and wine tasting experiences can be arranged in season, by request.
MUSIC IN NATURE
Music is a universal language. There’s nothing quite like connecting with nature among tall trees, immersed in the sounds of classical music.
A naturalist tour guide takes our guests on a walk through the woods, culminating in a wonderful treat: a string quartet concert playing just for them, in the shade of the estate’s majestic oaks.
WE ARE ALL PRIDE
Being proud of who we are isn’t about being egocentric. It’s about self-awareness, developed through our experiences, the life we’ve lived, the things we feel able to share with ourselves and those around us.
Recognising others and recognising ourselves through other people’s eyes becomes a way of life, with acceptance, listening, peace as its core values.
Masseria Palesi and the Valle d’Itria are hosting this event as it reflects their ongoing commitment to raising awareness about diversity and celebrating beauty, whatever form it may take.
