Co-exhibitor of REGIONE CAMPANIA
The Domaine is located on the slopes of three small Cities: Sant’Angelo all’Esca, Taurasi, and Luogosano, all part of seventeen Taurasi Docg boroughs. The Domaine consists of 60 hectares of vineyard. Hazelnut trees are also cultivated on the Estate, as well as 7 ha of olive threes producing a local variety named “Ravece”. The extra virgin olive oil they produce in a DOP area. The parcels of land extending to the southern slopes and the southeast of the mountains, at an altitude of about 350-500 meters above sea level. Their soil is made up of marl, sandy clay, and limestone under-layer, and volcanic elements. The nature and the composition of the soil give to the wines: fullness, structure, minerality, and persistence in the mouth. The micro-climate is very unique: warm summers and cold, harsh, and windy winters. During the fall the difference between nightand day temperature is quite remarkable. The warm day and cold night allow Aglianico a long maturation time and a late harvesting from mid-October to midi-November. All grapes, as well as the Coda di Volpe and the falanghina grapes, come exclusively from the estate own vineyards. The Pepe family is very involved in wine production. All its members work very closely with professionals who control yields, using limited fertilization and taking excellent care of the soils in order to obtain top-quality grapes.
