The Mediterranean climate of Campania with the influence of the nearby sea, the protective mountains as well as soils of volcanic origin offer an ideal basis for viticulture, red wines are produced for the most part. The red Aglianico variety in particular, especially in Avellino, produces full-bodied, colour-intensive and aromatic red wines. For a long time, the only Campanian DOCG wine, Taurasi, is made from this variety. DOC wines account for only three percent of total wine production, but the quality efforts of recent years are beginning to bear fruit.

Excellent with roasted or grilled red meats, also very good with game and spicy dishes, truffles and mature cheeses.

A wine of great finesse, enhanced by the characteristics of the location, the Aglianico. The Vigna Grande Cerzito has a complex aroma of plum, liquorice with mineral notes. Dense and rich in the mouth with a soft tannin structure.
