Venue Intelligence

Mola di Bari, Puglia

A masseria among the olives.

Tenuta Pinto is an 18th-century Apulian masseria in the countryside of Mola di Bari, restored by the Pinto family and taken on exclusive use for weddings. Couples marry among the olive trees, take aperitivo in an illuminated stone courtyard, and dine in a covered hall or beneath fairy lights in the grove, with farm-to-table cooking from the estate's own kitchen garden.

Vows in the Olive Grove, Dinner Under the Lights.

Couples marry among the centuries-old olive trees, guests seated in the round on the lawn, or beneath a covered pergola dressed with drapes. Aperitivo follows in the illuminated courtyard as the festoon lamps come on, and dinner is served at long candlelit tables in the covered dining hall or beneath a canopy of fairy lights strung between the olives, for up to around two hundred guests.

Farm-to-Table, from the Orto.

The estate keeps a working kitchen garden the chef walks each morning, and the cooking is genuinely farm-to-table Apulian: seafood crudo and mozzarella, Puglian cured meats, plated courses, cheese and antipasti drawn from the land and the coast. Aperitivo comes with negroni and Puglian wine in the lit courtyard, and dinner runs long into the southern night.

Farm-to-Table

A working kitchen garden and a chef who walks it each morning: genuinely farm-to-table Apulian cooking.

A Chef Who Walks the Garden Each Morning.

What makes Tenuta Pinto is its kitchen. The estate keeps its own orto, a working kitchen garden, and the chef, Giuseppe, walks the rows each morning, gathering aubergine, chillies, greens and herbs for the day's cooking. It is farm-to-table in the truest sense, the produce carried from the garden to the pass to the table, a few metres and a few hours apart, so a wedding dinner here tastes of the exact patch of Puglian earth it is served on.

Location

Mola di Bari, Puglia

Tenuta Pinto lies in the countryside of Mola di Bari, in the Apulian heel of Italy, about thirty minutes from Bari and its international airport, and a similar distance from the Adriatic coast. It is easy for guests to reach, yet deep in the olive-grove country, with the whitewashed towns of Puglia, the trulli of the Valle d'Itria and the sea all within an easy drive.
