ABOUT THE WINERY:

The project was born from the meeting between Diamante and Antoine, who decided not only to join their lives, but also to create an estate to produce wine. The winery was created in 1996. Thanks to competence and great passion, the company has been able to highlight itself in a short time, distinguishing itself in the Irpinia panorama with a production of high quality wines , which reflect in a very faithful way the characteristics of an area, considered by connoisseurs on a par with a real cru, with absolutely inimitable characteristics. The Montefredane area is located at an altitude between 400 and 550 meters above sea level. The climate is continental in nature, with cool temperatures, constant ventilation which keeps the bunches healthy and the presence of considerable temperature variations between the temperatures of sunny days and cold nights. The medium-textured soils, prevalently calcareous-clayey in nature, are perfect for viticulture. In these fortunate pedoclimatic conditions, the Fiano has acclimatized very well and gives grapes of excellent aromatic concentration and crystalline finesse. This very ancient white grape variety manages to combine intensity and complexity with an extraordinary mineral elegance, which makes it one of the most interesting and long-lived whites of our peninsula. The estate extends over four hectares, divided into different parcels, which express different nuances of the terroir. In addition to Fiano, the company also produces Taurasi, with grapes selected year after year in some of the most suitable areas, such as Castelfranci or Montemarano. Simple and respectful practices are used in the cellar to enhance the character of the grapes. The wines express a remarkable richness and aromatic maturity, while always retaining the clear freshness, typical of the Montefredane area.
