Dating back to 1881, the union of Tommaso Schiavoni Tafuri, a prominent landowner from Manduria, and Countess Sabini from Altamura, marked the birth of a legend. As part of her dowry, the Countess brought "rooted cuttings" of Primitivo vines, which found their home in the fertile lands of "Cuturi" within the Conca D'Oro. It was here that the first Primitivo saplings flourished, giving rise to a wine that surpassed its peers in both alcohol content and full-bodied richness—a true nectar of the Gods.

The name Primitivo, meaning "early ripening," aptly described this variety's characteristic trait. As the late nineteenth century unfolded, the community's dedication and respect for the land nurtured around 100 hectares of sapling vines, cultivating the grapes with meticulous care.

Throughout its history, Masseria Cuturi has continually pursued excellence, embracing new technologies while honoring tradition. The winery's commitment to quality was quickly recognized, and accolades flowed, etching its name into the winemaking annals of Manduria.
