My encounter with wine and the vineyard was as lucky as it was fortuitous. Nothing was further from my professional horizons than being a winegrower, until, in 1994, I found myself coming to terms with a vineyard bequeathed to me by my father Giuseppe. So it was that, intrigued by my father’s passion for that vineyard, I embarked on the path in the world of winegrowing.

After working in marketing and sales for a wine cooperative in Irpinia, in 2000 I decided to create a winery together with my wife Flora Tranfaglia. The aim was to devote ourselves to artisanal winemaking far from industrial logic, faithful to the local tradition in both timing and technique.
