Casamatta
Manduria, Italy
Casamatta brings chef Pietro Penna’s contemporary cooking to Vinilia Wine Resort, a restored castle outside Manduria. Produce from the garden and the surrounding countryside anchors a kitchen with French influences and a strong Puglian identity. Tasting menus, including a vegetarian option, sit alongside à la carte choices. It makes a rewarding destination meal in the region’s wine country; confirm service times before travelling, as the restaurant changes its lunch and dinner pattern with the season.
