Overview

  • Your driver brings you into the heart of the Taurasi appellation, home to the legendary Aglianico grape—one of the oldest cultivated varieties in the world. Often called the “Barolo of the South, Taurasi is known for its power, depth, and extraordinary aging potential.
  • 
At a prestigious family-owned estate, explore the vineyards and cellar to understand how volcanic soils, altitude, and centuries-old winemaking traditions shape this noble red.
  • The visit continues with a relaxed four-course lunch paired with the estate’s flagship Taurasi and a beautifully expressive Fiano di Avellino. As you taste, you’ll see how the structure of Aglianico enhances rich local dishes, while Fiano—fragrant, ancient, and naturally elegant—adds a bright, aromatic counterpoint.
  • The afternoon takes you to the tuff-stone hills of Tufo, a landscape unlike anywhere else in Italy. Here you’ll enjoy a focused Cru tasting of Greco di Tufo, another ancient grape with deep roots in Campanian history. Comparing different vintages side-by-side reveals the wine’s evolution—from youthful minerality and citrus tones to richer textures with age—showcasing the remarkable versatility of this native variety.
  • Later in the afternoon, a comfortable drive brings you back to your hotel.
