Vigneti del Vulture “Pipoli” Greco-Fiano Basilicata IGT
50% Greco and 50% Fiano. Volcanic soil and diurnal temperature changes lead to gorgeous minerality and floral notes — an aromatic wine with great personality. The palate reveals a bold minerality that interacts in an intriguing manner with the slight sweetness.
