The Taurasi Riserva “Radici”
Cantina della Campana Mastrobernardino is an intense and deep red, which is born in the splendid land of Irpinia. In the cooler and more continental area of Campania,
Agliano expresses the best of its potential, with wines that manage to admirably combine elegance and power, aromatic richness and extraordinary longevity. These are characteristics that make Taurasi one of the most important reds of our peninsula, capable of giving great emotions. After a long aging in wood, which helps to tame its youthful exuberance, Taurasi Riserva reveals an austere and refined charm, with aromas of dried flowers, aromatic herbs, red fruit and spices. Its length and flavor complexity recommend pairing it with stewed red meats or game.
The Taurasi Riserva “Radici” is one of the most famous bottles of this important and large winery in Irpinia. The Mastroberardino family has been dedicated to viticulture since the end of the nineteenth century and today manages a total of over 250 hectares of vineyards in the Avellino area. Always faithful to the history and traditions of the territory, he had the great merit of believing in unsuspecting times in the potential of the native Aglianico, Fiano, Falanghina and Greco vines, with great consistency and tenacity. She was among the most important figures in the rebirth of Southern Italian wine thanks to a constant commitment to a continuous search for quality. Its wines are an authentic expression of the best characteristics of the Irpinia area, a synthesis of history, culture and passion.
