Falanghina is cultivated according to the traditional methods also widespread in Germany and France during the Middle Ages, as in the medieval riggiole preserved in the Casanetese library or in the 11th century crutch of the Lombard harvest in the church of Santa Sofia in Benevento.
The Greek comes from a vineyard 100 meters as the crow flies from the Avellino DOCG, but the plants testify to one of the oldest vineyards of the variety mentioned by Pliny. The label is a Bourbon riggiola, from the eighteenth century, like all the labels of the winery.
Caudium means tail, and the foxtail has its chosen area in Cirignano, a Montesarchio farmhouse in the foothills. In Cirignano the vine grows in difficult areas, poor, without soil, on steeper slopes of the Moselle or Val d'Aosta. Extreme viticulture. The label is a votive shrine from the 1700s.
It takes its name from the vine of the same name that the Latins called Vitis apiana, thanks to the bees particularly fond of the sweetness of these grapes. In the register of Frederick II of Swabia there is an order for three "corpses" of Fiano. Carlo D'Angiò also planted 16,000 Fiano vines in...

It is the sum of the aromatic freshness of white grapes grown in the high hills, up to an altitude of 900 meters: mainly Catarratto, Pinot Bianco, Sauvignon Blanc and Traminer for structure, aroma and acidity. A Lion, symbol of the family history.
From Pecorello grapes, an ancient native Calabrian vine to be rediscovered and valorised. For us, Ippolito is proud of passionate research.
The Whitaker Estate is located on the ancient Phoenician island of Mozia, off the coast of Marsala. Small but incredibly rich in historical evidence, Mozia boasts a microclimate in which the Grillo grape expresses all its vital force. The vineyard is in a splendid position, surrounded by...
The donnalaura is the emblem of the place of origin of the Falanghina, Montesarchio, with two biotypes, one now known throughout Campania and another rarer, exuberant, and with great acidity. Laura is the grandmother of the owner of the winery, Pasquale Clemente.
