REGION: Basilicata
APPELLATION: Aglianico del Vulture D.O.C
GRAPE: 100% Aglianico
WINEMAKER NOTES: Musto Carmelitano offers an honest, unadulterated taste of what great Aglianico can and should be. Beautiful, elegant and balanced, the family’s wines are a revelation, finally unveiling the true soul of one of Italy’s most noble grapes.
TASTING NOTES: Zesty and fruity, with tangy red berry flavors and aromas of violets, lavender and licorice. On the palate it is very rich, structured and sapid, rightly tannic and exuberant from a young age.

meats; local sheep’s cheese
ABOUT THE WINERY: Elisabetta and her brother, Luigi, are the heart of this family estate, both young, deeply passionate vine growers determined to show the world what they feel is the true expression of older-vine Aglianico grown on Basilicata’s unique volcanic soils.
