Paternoster is one of the oldest and most historical wine companies in Basilicata and consequently the name is heavily intertwined with the cultural heritage and development of Aglianico del Vulture. During my many travels in Basilicata it is hard to miss the Paternoster's brand new winery, looming proudly on the road between Ginestra and Barile. It is here that the vineyards are situated. Oenologist Fabio Mecca now oversees operations since his family sold the business to the expanding Venetian Tommasi Estates.
