Ciro Picariello is now a big name in Irpinia. It makes wine and enhances only native Campania varieties such as Fiano, Greco and Aglianico, coming from its 7 hectares of property, of which 5 hectares of white grapes and 2 of red grapes, between Summonte and Montefredane.

Ciro enhances the terroir of Irpinia, in fact the altitude and the consequent cool and ventilated climate, as well as the large temperature changes, characterize fresh and fragrant wines.

In the cellar, native yeasts and spontaneous fermentation are used and only steel is used, both for vinification and refinement.
