Mastroberardino Radici Taurasi Docg 2016
MASTROBERARDINO RADICI TAURASI DOCG 2016 BACKGROUND The Mastroberardino family, leaders in Italian viticulture, are largely responsible for the revival and elevation of Irpinian and Campanian winemaking post WWII. Their efforts ignited a resurgence in quality red and white wine production in all of Southern Italy. Working primarily with Campania’s ancient, native varietals, Fiano, Greco, and Aglianico, Mastroberardino has resuscitated would-be extinct grapes into world class varieties. Radici Taurasi is Mastroberardino’s flagship wine. Although first released in 1928, the wine became known as Radici, which translates as “roots,” in 1986. This classic red is the result of painstaking research into Aglianico clonal selection, rootstocks, and site selection of this region’s unique volcanic terroir and topography. A brilliant example of the powerful structure and elegance of this noble grape. APPELLATION Taurasi DOCG, Italy VARIETAL COMPOSITION 100% Aglianico TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTES Grapes are sourced from the two estate vineyards in Montemarano and Mirabella Eclano. Montemarano is a historic site in Taurasi VINOUS production, in the southernmost part of the DOCG area. It has a South- 95 May 2020 East exposure and clay soil. The vineyard sits at 500-650m a.s.l. and POINTS has an average vine age of 20 years. The vines are cordon spur- 93 PTS WINE & SPIRITS 12/20 pruned with espalier training and plated at a density of about 4,000 91 PTS WINE SPECTATOR 10/20 vines/hectare (or 1,600 vines/acre). Yields average 5,000 kg/ha (or 4,460 lbs/acre) and 1.3 kg/vine (or 2.87 lbs/vine).

A Tribute to the Professional History of Antonio Mastroberardino, the Archaeologist of Vine and Wine
fiano di avellino DOCG 2015 A tribute to the professional history of Antonio Mastroberardino, the archaeologist of vine and wine Mastroberardino Winery and Vineyards «The Stilèma project testifies the love of Antonio Mastroberardino for his land, its vines and its wines, for their original characters.». (Piero Mastroberardino) A love that during the decades, while Antonio was collecting success worldwide, was turning into a pressing concern that those same characters could be diluted, gradually dispersed due to the action of man, the processes of selection of the most productive genetic material, which is often not the more suitable to guarantee the best organoleptic expressions of a species. Antonio, my father, stressed the concept of the relevance of a research program able to retrace the time backwards, to bring us back to pre-war Irpinia viticulture, to a period of less contamination and a deeper varietal characterization, a more territorial style of wines, distinctive of a territory less subject to the distorting effects of external agents. Mastroberardino spa - Via Manfredi 75/81 – 83042 – Atripalda (Av) – Italy – P.I. 00080500648 Tel +39 0825 614.111 Fax +39 0825 614.231 www.Mastroberardino.coM A project started at the turn of the millennium, with a series of experimental hypotheses starting from selected clones in pre-phylloxera vineyards and leading to a rediscovery of working protocols, both in the vineyard and in the winery, related to the time in which Irpinia wines affirmed itself as the pick of the iceberg of a process of renaissance and revitalization of viticulture in our Country. Fiano, tenute Mastroberardino That program, over the last few years, has placed on a single mind map a series of initiatives aimed at strengthening the link between our vines and wines with their territorial origins.

Mastroberardino Radici Taurasi Riserva Docg 2014
MASTROBERARDINO RADICI TAURASI RISERVA DOCG 2014 BACKGROUND The Mastroberardino family, leaders in Italian viticulture, are largely responsible for the revival and elevation of Irpinian and Campanian winemaking post WWII. Their efforts ignited a resurgence in quality red and white wine production in all of Southern Italy. Working primarily with Campania’s ancient, native varietals, Fiano, Greco, and Aglianico, Mastroberardino has resuscitated would-be extinct grapes into world class varieties. Radici Taurasi Riserva, first produced in 1986, is the result of extensive physical and chemical research within their single vineyard Montemarano estate. Selecting the best sites for their Riserva production, the wine’s strong, dense structure and aromatic concentration are evident characteristics of this 20-year-old vineyard. Radici, meaning “roots,” refers to Mastroberardino’s comprehensive research into clonal selection, rootstocks, and site selection when crafting their Taurasi wines. APPELLATION Taurasi DOCG Riserva, Italy VARIETAL COMPOSITION 100% Aglianico VINOUS 94 May 2020 TERROIR & VINTAGE NOTES POINTS Produced from vineyards within the Montemarano estate, a historic site in Taurasi production in the southernmost part of the DOCG area. It has a South-East exposure and covered in chalky-clay soil. The vineyard sits at 550m a.s.l. and has an average vine age of 20 years. The vines are Espalier-trained and Cordon Spur-pruned and planted at a density of about 3,500 vines/ha (1,400 vines/acre). Yields average 4,500 kg/ha (4,000 lbs/acre) and 1.3 kg/vine (or 2.87 lbs/vine). WINEMAKER Massimo Di Renzo WINEMAKING & AGEING Manual harvest takes place early November.
