Basilicata, in southern Italy, is a region whose name crops up only very rarely in wine circles. Winemaking in Basilicata dates back over a thousand years. While in central and northern Italy it was the Etruscans and Romans who pioneered local winemaking, in the south this task was largely undertaken by seafaring Greeks.
Basilicata may not be a particularly affluent region, yet it is rich in natural beauty. It features stunning mountain and hill ranges. In fact it is one of the most mountainous regions in Italy.
Compared to the rest of Italy, the total wine production in Basilicata is very small.
