“Founded in the 18th century by Pietro di Mastro Berardino, the [Mastroberardino] winery is situated in the pretty town of Atripalda in Campania and is still family-owned and -run. The jewel in the estate’s crown is a collection of vineyards in the volcanic hills of the Taurasi DOCG zone. Here, the Aglianico grape produces wines of incredible concentration and poise – many have described Taurasi as the ‘Barolo of the south’ . ” (Decanter Magazine) This Irpinian icon has been a time capsule of Campania’s native grapes—like Fiano, Greco, and the brooding, age-defying Aglianico. When others ditched their roots for trendier international grapes, the Mastroberardinos doubled down on local heritage.
