Cabernet Sauvignon, IGT
BASILICATA – Red Wine

We began with a local grape variety and since the last century, we have started cultivating Cabernet Sauvignon grape variety.  We have improved our product over the last years, also thanks to the collaboration with the University of Basilicata that helped us to select the most suitable shoots for our terrains. Today our wine is a perfect combination of tradition, passion, research and quality.
