Daunia is located in the north of Puglia, bordering the regions of Molise, Campania, and Basilicata; taking its beginnings in the Daunian Sub-Apennines, the land descends to the extensive plains of the Tavoliere until it reaches the Murgia of Bari.<br>It is bordered on the east by the Gargano promontory massif, which acts as a natural barrier to the cold winds blowing across the Adriatic from the nearby Balkans. Thanks to such conditions, the Daunia enjoys a largely continental-style climate, characterised by very cold winters, with snow and freezes, and generally long, often very hot summers. The soils are deep, with good drainage and little water loss; the vine-roots penetrate them easily, ensuring the vine an adequate supply of water and minerals.
