Special features...
The origin...
A unique country... the Pantone farm is located in Pietrapertosa, the highest town in Basilicata, located in the Lucanian Dolomites in the Gallipoli Cognato park. Built entirely on the bare rock, almost set in it, taking advantage of every little ravine, it makes it a sensational, unique place to look at and, when the sun goes down, romantic at the same time 
It is in places like these where small artisans create such wonders, highlighting the quality and importance of raw materials capable of giving life to excellent products...
