More questions
The Aglianico del Vulture Superiore DOCG 2013 by Don Anselmo, produced in the evocative volcanic area of Basilicata, represents an intense and refined expression of the Aglianico grape variety. The soil of origin, rich in volcanic minerals, gives this wine a solid structure and a unique character, where complexity integrates with elegance.
The long aging, partly in wooden barrels and partly in the bottle, develops deep notes of ripe red fruits, delicate spices, and a slight hint of tobacco that accompanies a soft yet present tannin. On the palate it is full and balanced, with an aromatic persistence that invites further tastings. Perfect to pair with robust red meats, roasts, and aged cheeses, this Aglianico del Vulture embodies the essence of an extraordinary terroir and the mastery of Lucanian winemaking tradition.

The story
A historic winery of the Vulture region, established by the Paternoster family and active for generations. Founded in 1925 in Barile, it has become a benchmark for the promotion of Aglianico del Vulture: it retains strong family continuity in its management and, since 2016, has been part of the Tommasi Family Estates group, which has supported restoration projects and the expansion of the estate’s hospitality.
Production philosophy
Artisanal, terroir-driven approach: each vineyard and parcel are tended and vinified separately to convey the character of the Vulture. Vineyard and cellar decisions are guided by respect for the fruit, the search for identity, and the aim to produce long-lived, distinctive wines.
Terroir and vineyards
Located on the slopes of Monte Vulture in Basilicata, the winery works with the volcanic soils typical of the Aglianico del Vulture appellation, at altitudes of 400–600 m or more and with pronounced diurnal temperature variation.
Awards and recognition
The Don Anselmo cru has received wide recognition from the international press: among the awards and scores it has earned are high ratings from Wine Advocate, 93/100 from James Suckling, and Italian honors such as Gambero Rosso’s 3 Bicchieri.
