Mastroberardino Falanghina is light straw yellow with greenish reflections. Fresh and fruity on the nose, with intense and persistent notes of field flowers and exotic fruits (pineapple, banana, kiwi, mango). Fresh taste with lively acidity in perfect balance with the wine's structure. The exotic fruits identified on the nose, reappear with great intensity on the palate and are supported by an elegant citrusy and mineral backbone.

6 year old vines in Mirabella Eclano. The soil is characterised by muddy, tuff stone and rich in minerals. Exposure is south to west. Altitude 400m a.s.l. Vines per hectare 4,000. Shoulder with guyot pruning system. Yield per hectare about 7 tons. The area of Irpinia is influenced both by the Vesuvius volcano and by the area's temperate climate, which is ideal for the cultivation of the great Irpinia wines. The Mastroberardino family's holdings are spread across several parts of Irpinia, over areas which became firmly established as the production centres for the great wines of the region. In recognition of the role played in the protection of the Roman age viticultural and oenological heritage, the Head of the Pompei Archaeological Heritage Department has entrusted the family with the management of sites which were used as vineyards in the ancient city. The idea was to replant them with the same, historic vines which, then as now, epitomised the area's winemaking tradition.

Mastroberardino

The family estates are all located in Irpinia in the heart of the production areas of three DOCGs: Greco di Tufo Fiano di Avellino Taurasi. They are distributed in several areas in order to preserve the identity of the local varieties and vineyards as well as ensuring their preservation and enhancement both in Italy and throughout the world. The family in fact has always paid great attention to the safeguard and promotion of local grape varieties such as Aglianico Fiano Greco Falanghina Piedirosso and Coda di Volpe all dating back to Greek and Roman times.
