The Estate

Antonio Caggiano founded his estate in the town of Taurasi, Campania, Italy in 1990 with the goal of re-establishing the reputation of Aglianico, one of southern Italy’s most important indigenous grapes. An architect and photographer, Antonio came from a rural family and began bottling wine from his own grapes, first producing a Taurasi in 1994.

Wine Making

Grapes are harvested when fully ripe and, after the destemming and the crushing, subjected to a fermentation with maceration. A malolactic fermentation and an 6/8 months aging in French
oak barriques follow.
