Vigneti del Vulture Pipoli Greco/Fiano 2020 Basilicata

Fruits for this wine come from vineyards in the towns of Maschito,
Irsina and Acerenza on the slopes of Mount Vulture, an extinct
volcano, and highst mountain in Basilicata. Soils in this area are
volcanic and rich in clay, calcium, nitrogen and tuff. Vineyards
are planted at an altitude of 500 – 600 meters above sea level
and all south west facing. The vines are Guyot trained and on
average 25-30 year old. The long slow growing season, due to the
high altitude of the vineyards, ensures that Vulture is one of the last
areas in Italy to harvest, so late ripening native grapes such as
Greco, Fiano and Aglianico are ideally suited this area.
