WINES OF SOUTHERN ITALY

Bisceglia

The Bisceglia (pronounced: be-SHAYL-yah) estate is an important and dynamic winery offering a range

of top-quality products. After many years in the corporate food industry, Mario Bisceglia returned to his

land to begin this adventure and founded the estate in 2001. His goal is to continually produce world-

class wines made with both indigenous and international varietals grown in the Basilicata region.

“Terra di Vulcano” Aglianico del Vulture DOC

Basilicata, at the southern extreme of Italy, is a land shrouded in the shadow of Mount Vulture. This

ancient volcano dominates the landscape and characterizes the soil with the ash of past eruptions.

Made from 100% Aglianico, this wine is refined in stainless steel to retain the freshness and character of

this indigenous variety.

“Gudarrà” Aglianico del Vulture DOC

The Bisceglia estate is situated on the lower slopes of the extinct volcano, Mount Vulture, in the historic

district of Lavello. Gudarrà, in local dialect, means “to be enjoyed.” The name of the wine is a tribute to

its concentrated flavors, which beg the drinker to enjoy another glass.

“Gudarrà” Aglianico del Vulture Superiore DOCG

The Bisceglia estate is situated on the lower slopes of the extinct volcano Mount Vulture, in the historic

district of Lavello. Gudarrà, in local dialect, means “to be enjoyed.” “Gudarra’” Aglianico del Vulture

Superiore DOCG is the Besceglia family’s top wine and with its deep, concentrated flavors, it is certainly

a wine which is meant “to be enjoyed.”
