Colle di Lapio in Campania, run by Clelia Romano, produces outstanding wines such as Fiano di Avellino DOCG and Taurasi DOCG. The volcanic soils and the Mediterranean climate offer ideal conditions.
Colle di Lapio, a jewel of the Campania region, owes its reputation to Clelia Romano's commitment to quality and a relentless spirit of innovation.
Since its founding, the Colle di Lapio winery has earned an excellent reputation in the Italian wine world. Located in the Campania region, specifically in the Irpinia sub-region, the winery is known for its high-quality wines. The Romano family, who run the winery, has a long tradition of winemaking and brings their extensive knowledge and passion to every bottle. Clelia Romano, who founded the winery with her husband Angelo, has particularly contributed to making the winery what it is today.
The special feature of Colle di Lapio lies in its focus on autochthonous grape varieties such as Fiano di Avellino and Aglianico. Fiano di Avellino DOCG is the estate's best-known wine and is appreciated for its aromatic complexity and ability to mature over years. Taurasi DOCG, a strong red wine made from the Aglianico grape, is also one of the
winery's top wines.
The winery is located on the hills of Lapio, where the Mediterranean climate and volcanic soils offer ideal conditions for viticulture. The vineyards benefit from the large temperature differences between day and night, which helps the grapes to develop their aromas and acids perfectly.
