Di Prisco Fontanarosa: wines of Irpinia between precision and identity
The collection Di Prisco Fontanarosa gathers a selection of Campanian wines that authentically tell the character of Irpinia and the work of the Di Prisco winery. From the vineyards located around 600 meters above sea level, labels are born that are built on freshness, balance, and a meticulous attention to the quality of the grapes, with a production vision that enhances the territory of Fontanarosa and its most representative denominations.
This selection includes whites of great personality such as Greco di Tufo, Fiano, and Coda di Volpe, along with reds based on Aglianico and interpretations of Taurasi DOCG and Irpinia Campi Taurasini DOC. It is an assortment designed for those seeking territorial wines, elegant and capable of evolving over time, with a coherent and recognizable style.
The territory of Fontanarosa and the winery philosophy
Founded in 1995 by Pasqualino di Prisco on the foundations of the family farm, the winery has built its path with a clear choice: to work on selected vineyards, cultivated with care, and on modern winemaking that respects the raw material. The vineyards, located in a cool area of Irpinia, allow for the production of wines with taste tension, clear aromas, and a beautiful aromatic definition.
The richness of the range reflects this approach well. The whites express the mineral matrix and vivacity typical of the internal Campanian areas, while the reds show structure, depth, and a tannic texture suitable for aging. For those who wish to delve deeper into the winery's production, the Di Prisco Fontanarosa selection represents a solid and coherent reference.
