About this wine

Vineyard and terroir

The Aglianico fruit is grown on hillsides in Basilicata at elevations of 450–600 metres.

Vinification

The grapes are harvested by hand and carefully transported in crates to keep the berries intact. They undergo approximately 10 days of temperature-controlled maceration in stainless-steel vats, followed by fermentation.

Ageing

The wine matures in steel tanks before further ageing in bottle.
