TAURASI DOCG 'TERZOTRATTO' I FAVATI Taurasi is a town in the province of Avellino, Campania, Italy. Taurasi is a historic town which is located in the region of Sannio. The townʼs name probably derives from the Latin Taurus. Taurasi and Taurasi riserva are red, still Italian wines based principally on the Aglianico grape. Small percentages of Barbera and Piedirosso are sometimes included. Taurasi received the DOCG status in 1993. The production of the Aglianico dʼIrpinia I.G.T. and Taurasi D.O.C.G wines begins exactly the same: selection of the best grapes, then vinification and fermentation in large steel tanks, followed by racking into large oak barrels (botti). After about 12 months of aging, the part of the wine destined to become Taurasi continues aging in botti, while the wine assigned to become Aglianico I.G.T. is declassified, removed from botti, allowed to soften for around two months in large steel tanks, aged for at least two more months in bottle, and then released for sale. Grape: 100% Aglianico d'Irpinia Tasting Notes: Anise, tar, raspberry preserves on the nose. Lots of raspberry fruit, minerals, blackberry, light touch with the oak, medium bodied and velvety in texture, lovely raspberry finish, with fine but persistent tannins on a lengthy finish. Food Pairings: roast or barbecued meats. Vinyard Notes. Production Area: Cretarossa Vineyard in Venticano - San Mango in the province of Avelllino. Vineyards: about 2 hectares (5 acres) of leased vineyards. Elevation: 450-500 meters (1,480-1640 feet) above sea level. Soil: Clayey soils in hilly terrain. Vines Age: 15 years old and 5 years old. Planting System: Guyot Production per hectare: 8,000 kg (about 3.2 tons per acre). Harvest date: first 10 days of November Winemaking Notes. Vinification: Fermented in temperature- controlled stainless steel tanks. Aging: 12-15 months in small oak barrels, 12-15 in large barrels and 6-8 months in stainless steel and bottle. Alcohol (by volume): 13.50-14.00%.

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).

Irpinia: Castello Di Taurasi
Irpinia: Castello di Taurasi Dopo l’apertura straordinaria in agosto del castello di Taurasi a Montella (Avellino), appartenuto al principe madrigalista Carlo Gesualdo, se ne prevede la conclusione dei lavori di restauro per il mese di novembre. Il Palazzo Marchionale di Taurasi è chiuso alla cittadinanza da secoli. Resta uno degli edifici più rilevanti per fattura tra le emergenze architettoniche d’Irpinia. Partito da un primo insediamento – costituito da due dongioni – il palazzo Marchionale si è ampliato con il passar del tempo. Il castello è appartenuto al principe Carlo Gesualdo, che pare vi abbia celebrato le sue seconde nozze con Eleonora d’Este. La redazione del progetto ha registrato la collaborazione dell’ingegner Ferdinando Chiaradonna, responsabile unico del procedimento, del presidente della comunità montana Terminio Cervialto, Nicola Di Iorio e dell’amministrazione comunale di Taurasi. La progettazione è stata affidata al professor Massimo Pica Ciamarra – che si è aggiudicato l’intera fase progettuale del programma “Villaggi delle tradizioni”. Hanno partecipato alla fase di redazione del progetto circa quaranta tecnici, tra architetti ed ingegneri, molti dei quali irpini. Il progetto definitivo è stato approvato: dalla comunità montana Terminio Cervialto in data 17 maggio 2003; dal Comune di Taurasi in data 12 luglio 2003. Il parere di conformità antincendio è stato emesso dal comando provinciale dei vigili del fuoco il 24 giugno 2003. La Sovrintendenza si è espressa in maniera favorevole il 6 giugno 2003. Lo studio di fattibilità commissionato dalla Provincia di Avellino ha indicato il castello di Taurasi quale sede per l’enoteca dei vini d’Irpinia. E’ questa la destinazione d’uso cui si è attenuto l’intervento di riqualificazione dell’edificio.

Villa Dei Misteri: the Ancient Wine of Pompeii
Villa dei Misteri: The Ancient Wine of Pompeii Everybody knows Italy has a long winemaking historydating back to Roman times, but few are aware of the fact that the same wine the citizens of ancient Rome used to drink is still being produced today. Pompeii (in the Campania region in the south of Italy) is 2000 years old. The city was covered with lava after the volcano, Vesuvio, erupted in 79 B.C. These 18th-century ruins are now visited by more than 2 million tourists each year. What’s new today is the active wine production taking place at that archaeological site! In the 1980s, the Superintendency for the Archaeological Heritagestarted a search beneath the archaeological site to discover the original plants, trees and flowers and recover them after 2000 years had passed. During their research, they discovered grapevines. They turned to Mastroberardino, an historical local winery, known for their efforts to protect and enhance thenative varieties. Researchers asked the winery to handle this piece of the research. The study progressed through several phases and the analysis of the berries and vines remainsin laboratory along with the casts of plants, similar to the amazing casts of the bodies trappedunder the lava. Based upon where the vines were located, the winery was able to reproduce the grapevines with the same density as the original ones Thanks to the numerous books written by Romans, such as Naturalis Historia by Plinio, it was possible to learn more about ancient farming techniques of the vines. In 2001, from this fascinating recovery, "Villa dei Misteri" wine (named after one of the most impressive villas in Pompeii) was born.
