Donato D’Angelo Winery is a winery in Rionero in Vulture, the heart of the Vulture area. They are producing classic Aglianico del Vulture wines and more.
I met oenologist Emiliana D’Angelo last year, she is one of Donato D’Angelo’s daughters. I talked to Emiliana to learn more about
- Basilicata and the Vulture terroir
- Aglianico del Vulture, its characteristics and differences in relation to Taurasi
- The history of Donato D’Angelo winery
- Their wines – Emiliana’s vision
- Emiliana’s view on viticulture and winemaking in Vulture and Basilicata
- Current trends in Basilicata, the future
Emiliana pointed out that Aglianico del Vulture is unique for its good acidity level and tannins which gives it a very good aging potential.
