You will enjoy 4 glasses of selected wines, authentic expressions of the Lucanian territory, accompanied by a rich board of typical cold cuts and cheeses, carefully matched to enhance the flavours and fragrances of the wines. To complete the experience, a selection of gastronomic excellences from Basilicata, including local specialities prepared with genuine ingredients and linked to the culinary traditions of the region.
