Mastroberardino
Dubbed the ‘Barolo of the South’, Aglianico from the Taurasi DOCG is Southern Italy’s answer to Nebbiolo. Typically producing wines of brooding breadth and depth, they offer intriguing nuance such as leather, earthy and smoky character, and they are typically built for the long haul.
The main protagonist in the region committed to preserving Campania’s indigenous varietal, Mastroberardino produces a suite of fascinating Taurasi wines. Vinous' Eric Guido has effusively lauded them as 'one of the most dependable wineries in Campania'.
Mastroberardino is a storied family estate. Their vineyards were all but destroyed during World War II, but the now legendary Antonio Mastroberardino decided to re-plant them with Campania’s three ancient grapes; Fiano, Greco and Aglianico working for decades to improve production and educate the world about the quality of these historic varietals. Antonio’s passion and dedication have been passed down to his son Piero, who now runs the estate and continues to oversee many research projects, including classification, planting and viticultural zoning across the entire region.
