Wine Tasting Cantina Basileo

Highlights

  • The history of the Taiani family winery began many years ago, initially with the construction of the agricultural building between 1820 and 1880, including the old cellar. In 1880 our great-grandfather, Lorenzo Basileo, started the winery. These old and trusted methods continue today, including harvesting the grapes by hand. Located about 400 meters above sea level, the sloping terraces covered by traditional wooden pergolas show an environment in harmony with nature. The production of Basileo, all red wines, consists of: the first line called TERRAE MARIS containing wine "TINTORE" in a lower percentage than "Piedirosso" and finally, the third line formed by reserve, stored in oak barrels. The Tasting begins with a visit to the vineyard and cellars in the company of the third generation owner Elio and ends with the tasting of three wines accompanied by indigenous foods produced directly.

Why take this tour?

The history of our family winery began many years ago, initially with the construction of the agricultural building between 1820 and 1880, including the ancient cellar. In 1880 our great-grandfather, Lorenzo Basileo, began producing wines and created "La Cantina Basileo". These old and trusted methods continue today, including the harvesting of grapes by hand. Located at about 400 meters above sea level, the sloping terraces covered by traditional wooden pergolas show an environment in harmony with nature. The production of Basileo, all red wines, consists of: the first line called TERRAE MARIS containing "TINTORE" wine in a percentage lower than "Piedirosso" and finally, the third line formed by reserve, preserved in oak barrels. The tasting begins with a visit to the vineyard and the cellars to end with the tasting of three wines accompanied by autochthonous foods produced directly.
