Appellation Basilicata - IGT

The "Basilicata IGT" designation is a hidden gem nestled in the heart of Southern Italy, offering wines that reflect a rich winemaking tradition and a unique terroir. The Basilicata region, dominated by mountainous landscapes and a Mediterranean climate, benefits from a variety of soils ranging from volcanic clays to calcareous clays. These exceptional conditions allow for the cultivation of diverse grape varieties, including Aglianico, often dubbed "the Barolo of the South" due to its ability to produce long-aging, rich and structured wines. Aglianico wines from Basilicata amaze with their aromatic depth, featuring notes of black cherry, spices, and tobacco.

In addition to Aglianico, Basilicata also produces fresh and floral white wines, primarily made from local varieties such as Malvasia Bianca and Moscato. These wines offer a vibrant freshness and delicate minerality. As an IGT, the designation ensures great freedom for winemakers, allowing them to experiment and create innovative wines while respecting the winemaking heritage. Wine enthusiasts, whether novices or experts, will appreciate the complexity and history that each bottle of Basilicata IGT tells, offering a unique and authentic sensory experience.
