About Tenute Maci
Guests arrive at Tenute Maci to discover a working agricultural estate where the ceremony unfolds against authentic Salento countryside, rolling vineyards and centuries-old olive groves frame every moment.
The reception flows through the restaurant's intimate dining spaces, where locally-sourced courses connect guests directly to the region's culinary traditions.
What lingers is the sensory immersion: dust from the estate paths, the taste of Primitivo wine grown on-site, conversations that extend long into the evening.
