Volcanic soils, wine and passion
Our Winery
Our winery is located in the small town of Acerenza, where the pedoclimatic situation is harsh and the volcanic and calcareous soils very rich in potassium and micronutrients. Our vines have struggled for millennia to adapt to this ground and in fact, even today, varieties such as Aglianico and Greco have shown that in these extreme conditions they can produce fruit of a unbeatable quality and personality.

Pipoli Aglianico del Vulture DOC
Our vineyards are low trained and planted on volcanic soils on the slopes of Mount Vulture, at an altitude of up to 800 meters above sea level. According to our consultant winemaker Alberto Antonini, the area is isolated and uncontaminated, just like stepping back in time.
Pipoli Zero
Vineyards are situated at 450 meters above sea level and benefit from the cool wind blowing off the Vulture Volcano. Over the centuries, this breeze has blown volcanic ash from the volcano inland to give the soil here a hint of minerality character.
Piano del Cerro
This vineyards are superb; low-trained and planted on the volcanic soils of the slopes of Mount Vulture at altitudes of up to 800 meters above sea level. The area is one of Italy's most remote and poorest. However, as result of the volcanic soil rich in clay, calcium, nitrogen and tuff and the very old vines (over 80 years old) is an outstanding quality of the grapes, able to give the best expression of Aglianico from Vulture.
Tufarello Nero di Troia Puglia IGP
Our vineyards lie between the province of Bari and Foggia, on the north part of Apulia on a sandy and clay soil. The sea breezes of the Adriatic Sea allow to achieve delicate flavors in the grapes and fresh and persistent mouth feelings.
Pipoli Bianco Basilicata IGP
Our low trained vineyards are situated on the volcanic slopes of Mount Vulture at altitudes of up to 800 meters. The long slow growing season, due to the high altitude of the vineyards, ensures that Vulture is one of the last areas in Italy to harvest, so late ripening native grapes such as Greco, Fiano and Aglianico are ideally suited to the poor soils of this zone.
Sensuale Moscato
Our Moscato is coming from Venosa, which is the heart of Aglianico del Vulture. This area is the perfect union between the rich and balanced composition of the soil of volcanic origin the lucky exposure of the rolling Venosa hills. The grapes are develop a great acidity and an powerful fruits and aroma structure.
Pipoli Rosato Basilicata IGP
Our low trained vineyards are situated on the volcanic slopes of Mount Vulture at altitudes of up to 800 metres. The long slow growing season, due to the high altitude of the vineyards, ensures that Vulture is one of the last areas in Italy to harvest, so late ripening native grapes such as Greco, Fiano and Aglianico are ideally suited to the poor soils of this zone.
