History

The Ladogana family has grown grapes for generations at Orta Nova, in the Tavoliere of Foggia; Franco Ladogana carried on his father's work and a new cellar opened near the town in 1965.

Certified-organic pioneers in Puglia since 1996, and formalized as Agricola Ladogana in 2006, they take the 'Sessanta Passi' name from the sixty-pace width of the royal cattle-tracks, and make the 'Tarù' Orta Nova Rosso, one of the few labels of this small Sangiovese-based Foggia DOC.
