Di Meo: wines from Irpinia between identity and longevity
The Di Meo collection gathers a selection of wines that tell the story of Irpinia through some of its most authentic and recognizable expressions. From the strength of Aglianico to the finesse of Fiano di Avellino and the mineral freshness of Greco di Tufo, this range accurately interprets the character of the territory, enhancing vintages, crus, and reserves of great personality.
The history of the company began in the early 1980s in Salza Irpina, when the Di Meo brothers took over the historic family property and chose to dedicate themselves to the most representative indigenous grape varieties of the area. Today, the winery is a reference for those seeking quality Campanian wines, capable of combining tradition, elegance, and the ability to evolve over time.

The selection highlights a clear, territorial style with great precision. The whites, such as Fiano di Avellino DOCG and Greco di Tufo DOCG, offer structure, tension, and aromatic complexity, with a modern interpretation that remains true to the denominations. The reserve versions and the more mature vintages, such as Erminia, Alessandra, and Vittorio, express an additional level of depth and sophistication.
On the red side, Taurasi DOCG Riserva and Taurasi Riserva Selezione Hamilton represent the most important vocation of Azienda Agricola Di Meo, with characterful wines that are complex and suitable for long aging. The presence of labels like Vigna Olmo and VINO BLU Taurasi Riserva adds further interest to a selection designed for enthusiasts and collectors.
