Mastroberardino, Campania, Italy
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 turned 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 estates across Campania.
Max Allen wrote an article in The Australian in which he said that a Mastroberardino wine "…changed my life.”
Tasting Notes
The Lacrimarosa project is one of pursuit of perfection. The tradition of rosé production for the Mastroberardino family has deep roots. Since the 1950s, the late Antonio Mastroberardino had been making a Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio Rosé, a delicate wine with light amaranth hue from white vinification of Aglianico and Piedirosso grapes.
