The producer

Macchialupa

Macchialupa was founded in 2001 in the hamlet of San Pietro Irpino at Chianche, in the hills of Irpinia at around 450 metres, by agronomist Giuseppe Ferrara and oenologist Angelo Valentino. The small estate works Irpinia's native grapes — Greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino, Falanghina, Coda di Volpe and Aglianico — and makes a Taurasi called Le Surte.
