They use their osteria menu in part to showcase their own wines; they were recommended to us by a Leccese who knew we wanted an interesting wine experience. Regardless of whether you're there for their wines, it's also just a great osteria, producing typical Puglian dishes with flair and a lot of flavor....delicious! And (if you are focused on their wines), the staff does a good job pairing each of your dishes with a (refillable) glass of a different varietal. It was both elegant and easygoing, and (on December 30th) was filled with local families having a celebratory Pranzo. We really enjoyed this. Minervino itelf is hardly a destination, but it's easy in and out and if you're traveling around the Salento or in Otranto, the town is easily accessible.
