Basilicata IGT Greco di Vitis in Vulture is a white wine of great character, born in the volcanic lands of Basilicata. A fine interpretation of the Greco grape variety, one of the oldest in southern Italy. The slopes of the extinct volcano Vulture are characterised by mineral-rich soils that give the wines produced here a beautiful structure and a distinct minerality. The vineyards, between 300 and 500 metres, enjoy good exposures and are kissed by cool mountain winds that create an ideal microclimate for growing quality grapes. The Greco here is harvested by hand, usually between September and October, when the grapes have reached the right ripeness. In the winery, vinification begins with a soft pressing of the grapes, followed by fermentation at a controlled temperature to preserve the fresh, fruity aromas of the variety. Once fermentation is complete, the wine is aged in steel, preserving the freshness and purity of the initial fruit. Brilliant straw yellow in colour, enhanced by delicate greenish reflections, the bouquet is complex and inviting on the nose, with aromas of tropical fruit, such as pineapple and mango, followed by light herbaceous notes that add a touch of freshness to the wine. In the mouth, it is fresh and mineral, with good acidity. The finish is long, with a pleasant return of fruity notes and a slight hint of bitter almond. It goes well with fish dishes such as grilled and fried meats, vegetable-based first courses and fresh cheeses.
Tradition and innovation at the foot of Monte Vulture. This is the calling card of Vitis in Vulture, a reality immersed in the extraordinary volcanic landscape of Basilicata. With its 95 hectares of vineyards, the company is distinguished by the passion with which it pursues the production of typical local wines. Guiding this reality is Giuseppe Avigliano, an expert agronomist and agricultural entrepreneur, who pursues the creation of an indissoluble bond between land, vineyard and bottle. In the countryside, he mainly cultivates local vines, such as Aglianico del Vulture, an indigenous grape that represents the region's oenological excellence. Thanks to a unique terroir of ancient volcanic origin, the wines acquire a complex structure and great minerality. The heart of the business is the Finocchiaro Winery, designed by Japanese architect Hikaru Mori, a perfect example of how architectural art can integrate with winemaking tradition. The winery, modern and innovative, is designed to host not only the wine production phases but also cultural events and tastings.
