The Donnachiara Estate is a renowned winery situated in the picturesque region of Greco di Tufo, Italy. Located in the province of Avellino, the estate stretches across an extensive expanse of lush green hills where vines are cultivated with care and passion. The Donnachiara Estate is the result of five generations of winemaking. It is today managed by the dynamic Chiara Pettito, great-great-granddaughter of the founder. Chiara has inherited her ancestors' passion for wine and continues their tradition of excellence. The estate's main villa is a beautiful white structure, an impressive testimony to ancient Italian architecture. The surrounding vineyards offer a breathtaking landscape, which varies in accordance with the seasons, transitioning from the vibrant green of summer to the golden red of autumn. The estate produces a wide range of wines, but is most famous for its white wine of the same name, Greco di Tufo. This wine is a complex blend of flavors that capture the essence of the region. It is made from grapes that are carefully hand-harvested, then fermented at controlled temperature. The result is a wine of dazzling clarity, featuring notes of peach, pear, and vanilla, which pairs wonderfully with the region's seafood and fish dishes. Another specialty of the estate, the red wine Irpinia Aglianico, is a delight for those who enjoy robust and rich wines. It offers an explosion of flavors from red fruits, prunes, and cherries, with hints of chocolate and spices. The Donnachiara Estate also offers tours of the vineyard and cellar, where visitors can learn about the winemaking process and sample a selection of their award-winning wines.
