The collection Colli di Lapio brings together some of the most representative labels of a winery that accurately interprets the territory of Lapio, in Irpinia. Here, among vineyards located at about 550 meters above sea level and a dry, breezy climate, wines with a clear profile are born, strongly linked to tradition and with a distinct winemaking personality.
The territory of Lapio and the vocation for Fiano and Aglianico
Lapio is one of the most important municipalities for Fiano di Avellino DOCG and one of the few to also boast the Taurasi DOCG designation. This dual vocation is perfectly reflected in the Colli di Lapio selection, where Fiano and Aglianico are at the center of a careful production project, based on meticulous cultivation, limited quantities, and rigorous selection of the grapes.
The winery Colli di Lapio, linked to the Romano family and the figure of Romano Clelia, was born from a passion passed down through generations and has established itself for superior quality wines, capable of standing out in Italy and abroad. Among the labels in this collection, you will find Fiano di Avellino 2020 DOCG “Clelia”, Fiano di Avellino 2021 DOCG “Clelia”, Fiano Colli di Lapio DOCG Clelia Romano, and Fiano Colli di Lapio 2024 DOCG Clelia Romano, in addition to the Aglianico-based reds such as Taurasi DOCG Andrea 2019, Taurasi DOCG Andrea 2020, and Irpinia Campi Taurasini Donna Chiara D.O.C.
Style of Colli di Lapio wines
The whites from the winery express an elegant and territorial Fiano, with a balance between freshness, structure, and aromatic complexity. They are wines that lend themselves both to immediate drinking and to more refined gastronomic moments, thanks to their versatility at the table and their ability to accompany dishes with defined flavors.
The reds, on the other hand, enhance Aglianico in an intense and authoritative Irpinian interpretation. The Taurasi and Irpinia Campi Taurasini offer depth, tannic structure, and a clear territorial imprint, making them ideal for those seeking wines to pair with flavorful cuisine and structured preparations.
