At the heart of the estate is a 17th century baronial palace that houses the renowned Osteria Origano, the family restaurant which serves traditional Pugliese cuisine using only the highest quality, local, organic products. Cantine Menhir structure is encompassed by a lush garden that hosts live music and outdoor dining. The winery and osteria have become a social centrepiece to Minervino, bringing in thousands of visitors yearly from around the world.

During all these years the Minini Family never forgot its tight link with the land, developing new cooperation projects with growers all over the main production areas of Italy. This allowed the Family to widen the portfolio of wines to support its introduction on the International markets.
