Winemaker Notes

The optimal ripening of the grapes together with their excellent health and careful vinification have contributed to the production of an elegant quality wine. It has a light straw yellow color, a fruity bouquet typical of the varieties, fresh, broad and intense, a fresh, soft and delicate flavor with a slight bitterness, very pleasant in its harmony.

Cantina Venosa, Italy
Cantina Venosa Paesaggio Winery Image

Venosa is a beautiful ancient village in southern Italy, rich in history, culture and art. Gentle hills surround Cantina di Venosa, where luxurious volcanic soil and dry micro-climate work in harmony to produce Italy’s best kept secrets in fine wines. This undiscovered corner of Italy provides one of the best values in the marketplace for fine wine. Here, in Venosa, there is one of the most renowned wine businesses of Southern Italy: CANTINA DI VENOSA. 


?Time and geological transformations gave the soils around the ancient Basilicata volcano as well as those surrounding ones, the necessary climatic conditions in order that the precious vineyard’s grapes can acquire through maturation, those particular characteristics which make Aglianico del Vulture a unique product, deeply connected to its territory and not repeatable in any other place. But this is not enough: the way, from the grapes to the bottle, is still far away. Here the men skill comes into the game, which must realize all those necessary processes to transform grapes into wine

Persistent with jasmine aromas and tropical fruit flavors, both grape and name are far-reaching. Approximately 70 registered grapes contain Malvasia as part of their name or are listed as a synonym. The French call it Malvoisie, Germans call it Malvasier, British say Malmsey and confusingly one variety double-times under the alias, Boal, on the island of Madeira. In any case, Italy has more forms of Malvasia than any other country: Malvasia Bianca di Candia, Malvasia di Candia Aromatico and the red-skinned Malvasia di Casorzo from Piedmont. The list goes on. Somm Secret—The actual name could stem from an Italian mispronunciation of Monemvasia, a southern Greek port.

Inhabiting the arch of Italy’s boot, this southern, mountainous region has a relatively small amount of vineyard area under vine. Basilicata has one DOCG for its prized red grape, Aglianico, Aglianico del Vulture Superior, which is limited to the slopes of an extinct volcano. The best whites are made of Malvasia bianca.
