Basignani

Maryland Cabernet and hybrid wines rated by major critics.

Basignani produces wines in Maryland, a region where cool-climate viticulture yields distinctive expressions of classic varieties. The winery's portfolio centers on Cabernet-based wines: the Lorenzino Reserve, a Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc blend, and a varietal Cabernet Sauvignon that anchors the range. Chancellor, a hybrid grape suited to eastern American conditions, appears in the Marisa. These wines have been assessed by Wine Advocate, Wine Spectator, and Wine Enthusiast. The Lorenzino Reserve and Cabernet Sauvignon demonstrate the winery's focus on structured reds, while the Marisa offers an alternative expression rooted in the region's viticultural character. Basignani's approach reflects Maryland's potential for serious wine production in a challenging climate.
