Discover the grape variety: Aglianico
Powerful, tannic reds with deep colour and tight structure, with aromas of black cherry, blackberry, leather, tobacco, coffee and balsamic-volcanic mineral notes. High acidity and very fine ageing potential, often compared to nebbiolo. Star of Taurasi DOCG in Campania and Aglianico del Vulture DOCG in Basilicata (vines planted on volcanic soils). Late-ripening southern Italian variety of probable ancient Greek origin.

The wine region of Taburno
Campanian DOCG (Sannio) around Monte Taburno, hillside vineyards on clay-limestone and volcanic soils, more temperate and windy than Taurasi. Aglianico signature as red king (≥85%, specific Taburno biotype): powerful and fresh with blackberry, black cherry, plum, violet, herbs, leather and volcanic mineral hint, firm tannins and vibrant acidity — more balanced and fruity than Taurasi or Vulture. Riserva with 3 years ageing. Structured gem of Sannio.
The wine region of Campania
Cradle of southern Italy's great wines on volcanic soils. Majestic Aglianico in red: structured, deep and tannic with notes of black cherry, candied plum, leather and spices, sublimated in age-worthy Taurasi DOCG, the "Barolo of the south". Identity whites of Irpinia: opulent Fiano di Avellino (honey, hazelnut), mineral iodine Greco di Tufo, aromatic Falanghina (peach, flowers). Also supple Piedirosso.
