The Basilisk comes to life from a historical and timeless tradition, in the heart of the Aglianico del Vulture area. Even today, as in remote times, it is vinified in the famous 8 caves of the Vulture, in particular in those facing the north side of the mountain. The constant temperature of these stone cavities is around 16 - 18 degrees and is ideal not only for the fermentation of the wine but also for its perfect conservation. The name of this Aglianico del Vulture DOC of Basilisco recalls a meaning of Greek origin coinciding with a term that identifies the so-called. 'Little King'. Composed of 100% Aglianico grapes, it has a complex cultivation system consisting in the arrangement of the vineyards in Guyot and shed. Before reaching the table, this wine goes through a slow and meticulous maceration process, followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks for a variable duration, from 15 to 30 days. It completes its maturation in French oak barriques, where it rests for about 15 months.
