Mastroberardino,
Ready, but will keep,
This wine is made with 100 percent Piedirosso, one of Campania’s native red grapes that is now in limited production. Grown on volcanic soil, here – in the hands of the masterful team at Mastroberardino – it produces a generous wine, with aromas of black cherry and plum. The palate is smooth, with ripe tannins and layers of spicy complexity.

Mastroberardino,
Ready, but will keep,
Made from 100 percent Aglianico, this wine is deep garnet in colour. The nose hints at cocoa spice and red cherry fruit. The tannins are ripe and smoothly textured, with fresh fruit and leather notes adding complexity. The finish is long and generous.
Katherine Dart MW, Buyer
For its complexity and elegance, the Redimore from Mastroberardino is a wine that is worth singling out. Without having to pay the higher (although still very reasonable, compared with the prices of some wines from further north) price for Taurasi, this wine shows the characteristics of all that is great about Aglianico; its delightful red and black fruit, its nuances of spice and smoke, all balanced by the most elegant of structures. Truly a wine to savour.

Fattoria Galardi,
Ready, but will keep,
Galardi emerged as a star wine property in Campania over the past decade. The region’s volcanic soils yield wines of impressive elegance and personality, as demonstrated through an array of compelling indigenous varieties. Terra di Lavoro, the estate’s flagship wine, has risen to become one of Italy’s cult wines, and with good reason. It showcases the qualities of two ancient varieties (Aglianico and Piedirosso) and the volcanic soils on which they are grown. The two grapes combine to imbue the wine with concentration, compelling complexity and length.
Produced from Aglianico and Piedirosso (an ancient variety from Campania that –when treated with care – gives good body, soft tannins and gentle minerality), Galardi’s top offering is no shrinking violet, but combines its power with fine definition and poise that has elevated this hidden gem to cult status.

Luigi Tecce, Campania,
Ready, but will keep,
2009 was a tougher vintage in the South, plagued by rain. A wave of water swept passed Luigi’s cantina and through Paternopoli in June; prompting attacks by downy mildew resulting in 60% less fruit at Luigi’s disposal, despite an otherwise benign summer. Matured in botte grande, undergrowth, forest, rosemary fruit pepper the nose; the full bodied palate is lush with earthy strawberry notes, along with a crushed mineral lattice character that reminds one of Barolo’s Serralunga d’Alba. Perhaps a wine to drink before his 2008 (and 2006 even).

Luigi Tecce, Campania,
Ready, but will keep,
This wine is proof that the South had the best of 2008’s weather. Luigi talks of his Taurasi making itself in this vintage with the combination of heat and sufficient water delivering fruit that is both ripe and beautifully balanced. It is fine and ripe with a cherry intensity, whilst being delicate and ethereal too. This is quite difficult to read at such an early stage of its life but it is certainly a prodigious wine and one to stick away while you enjoy the earlier drinking ‘Campi Taurasini’.

Mastroberardino,
Ready, but will keep,
The 2008 Taurasi Radici Riserva Antonio is a one-off wine made only this vintage to celebrate the incredible life and influence of Antonio Mastroberardino who passed away in January 2014. The wine is made only with fruit from the Montemarano vineyard and it ages in wood for 30 months (40% sees botte grande and 60% goes into barrique). This is a beautifully polished and sophisticated wine with a deep, dark color and an impressively silky quality to the tannins. The bouquet shows ethereal tones of dried earth, rose petal, tar, resin and cola. The 2008 vintage was especially successful terms of phenolic ripeness for color intensity and aromas. I went back to the wine an hour after tasting it and was delighted to see that it continued to evolve and open. This is an elegant wine dedicated to one of the most passionate advocates of Campania wine.
