History
Basilisco was founded in 1992 in the Vulture and acquired by Feudi di San Gregorio in 2010, which restored the historic tuff cellars of Barile's Sheshë. Farmed biodynamically under Viviana Malafarina, it is a benchmark for volcanic Aglianico, with the Teodosio bottling and old-vine cru wines.
