Discover the story behind Mastroberardino

Mastroberardino is one of the leading wineries and wine families in Italy in terms of production, market impact and innovation. This is one family with a winemaking history dating back to the early 18th century, and which is largely responsible for the viticultural success of Campania's remote Irpinia area, successfully turning would-be extinct grapes into world class varieties. The family estates are all located in Irpinia, in the heart of the areas of production of the three DOCGs: Greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino and Taurasi. Today Mastroberardino's production has grown to 16 wine estatesacross Campania. "The first evidence of Mastroberardino in the current headquarter in Atripalda, at the gates of Avellino, date back to the mid of the 1700. Since then, through ten generations without interruptions, my family has been acknowledged as the champion of the autochthonous grapes of Irpinia and Campania, and a reference point of the Italian oenology and winegrowing. Our commitment has always been focused on the care and enhancement of varieties such as Aglianico, Fiano, Greco, Falanghina, Piedirosso, Coda di Volpe, whose origins date back to the Greek colonization and the Roman civilization."
