"Gorgeously fruited and perfumed, showing Black Doris plum, blueberry, rich floral, olive, and almond notes on the nose, followed by a succulent palate that's plump and flavoursome. Wonderfully structured by layers of polished tannins, making it robust and supple at the same time with a sustained, delectable finish."
- Sam Kim

Nestled in the volcanic slopes of Mount Vulture, Basilicata’s hidden gem, Canio is part of the Vigneti del Vulture co-op & blends tradition with modern expertise. Guided by consultant winemaker Alberto Antonini, the team crafts expressive whites from Greco and Fiano and elegant Aglianico reds that showcase the region’s unique volcanic soils and crisp, fresh climate. Small yields, careful vineyard management, and a focus on purity of fruit result in wines that are vibrant, balanced, and unmistakably Basilicata.
