Terra di Lavoro 2016 Galardi Campania IGP

Twenty years have passed since Maria Luisa Murena, Arturo Celentano, Roberto Selvaggi, Francesco Catello and Dora Catello climbed towards Ponte, arriving in San Carlo and discovered the pristine beauty of the Sessa Aurunca countryside on the slopes of Roccamonfina. Together, with the perfect assistance of the oenologist Riccardo Cotarella, they had the merit of having given voice to the then unexplored potential of Aglianico and Pedirosso which, if implanted following the criteria of a serious, reasoned viticulture and modern, on soils of volcanic origin are able to give wines of great quality and exceptional character. The vineyards extend over a volcanic terrain of great potential , which slopes down slowly towards the sea. Both the vineyards and the olive groves owned by the winery are set in a splendid and suggestive frame of chestnut woods that alternate on the slopes of the Roccamonfina volcano, offering an extraordinary overview of the property. All these elements, combined with the winery's passion for promoting their work, have led to the creation of an incredible wine in terms of intensity and persistence. The Terra di Lavoro is able to unleash all the best features of Aglianico , which in the volcanic territory manages to give rise to nuances of exceptional and unique aromas and fragrances. A wine that brought the winery into the elite of Italian red wine.
