Cantine del Notaio

Aglianico from Basilicata's volcanic slopes, assessed by major critics.

Cantine del Notaio works with Aglianico in Basilicata, the volcanic region of Southern Italy where this dark, structured grape finds its most compelling expression. The winery's core releases—La Firma Aglianico del Vulture, Il Sigillo Aglianico del Vulture, and L'Atto—demonstrate the variety's capacity for depth and aging potential. Wine Spectator, Wine Advocate, Decanter, and Wine Enthusiast have all assessed the portfolio. Aglianico del Vulture, grown on the slopes of Mount Vulture, yields wines with tannin architecture and mineral precision that reflect the region's volcanic terroir. These are wines built for contemplation rather than immediate consumption, marked by the grape's characteristic dark fruit and earthy undertones.
