Aglianico grapes give life to Taurasi, a red wine that tells the traditions of Irpinia.The bunches of Vigna Vigna Vinieri (baptized with the name of its owner “Viniero”), express the essence of Taurasi. This wine is produced with 100% Aglianico, cultivated in the area of DOCG Taurasi, located 500 meters above the sea level. The manual harvest is planned in the 2nd and 3rd decade of October.
