    Irpinia Aglianico DOC

    The Irpinian territory owes its peculiarities to the particular pedoclimatic condition, which is also influenced by the volcanic activity of Vesuvius, making it suitable for the cultivation of native grape varieties, among which Aglianico stands out for its diffusion and quality. It is considered the monarch of the region's viticulture, capable of producing wines with great personality and an extraordinary aptitude for aging. Yet, its versatility allows for experimenting with more agile and graceful winemaking processes, with shorter macerations and less aging, resulting in elegant and refined wines, as evidenced by this Irpinia Aglianico DOC.

    Founded in 1878 in Atripalda, Avellino, this family-run company holds a rich historical legacy spanning ten generations, preserving the ancient winemaking traditions of the region. Its estates are located in Irpinia, the birthplace of three DOCG wines: Greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino, and Taurasi. Divided into various areas of the region, these estates aim to conserve the identity and protection of unique terroirs. Mastroberardino is committed to safeguarding and promoting valuable grape varieties, including Aglianico, Fiano, Greco, Falanghina, Piedirosso, and Coda di Volpe, with roots that delve into the history of Greek colonization and ancient Rome.
