Mastroberardino

In colour straw to golden yellow with greenish reflections. Fresh, pleasantly light scent of broom, well structured, pleasant acidity and very full-bodied on the palate with a delicate bitter note at the end, reminiscent of pomegranates. SUPERIORE.DE

A wine with a prestigious name and a pretty legend: God wept when he found a corner of heaven stolen from Lucifer and where his tears fell, the Lacryma Christi vine grew. The extraordinary power of the area around Vesuvius, where lava fights in the volcanic rock, produces this wonderful wine. SUPERIORE.DE

The Aglianico Irpinia impresses with an immense perfume fullness of intense aromas of red fruits, herbs and delicate balsamic notes. The taste is warm and full, with rich fruit tones spiced with a hint of liquorice. An Aglianico that is already very accessible in young years. SUPERIORE.DE

Delicate rosé, aromatic vinous scent with notes of roses, violets and undergrowth. Fresh on the palate with fine acidity, soft and a slightly salty note. A wine which does not hide its volcanic origin and which is a pleasure to drink. SUPERIORE.DE

"If you’ve never experienced an Aglianico Rosato, then pull up a chair. The 2019 Lacrimarosa from Mastroberardino displays both sweet and savory tones on the bouquet, as ripe strawberry and roses give way to savory herbs, Indian spice, and white smoke. Soft textures envelope the palate in ripe fruits, showing more melon now than red fruit, but with a penetrating zing of vibrant acids which motivate the experience and expose the senses to salty minerals. On the finish, we return to the strawberry spectrum, along with alluring inner florals that seem to go on and on and on." Vinous

"Lovely aromas of peaches, roses and wild strawberries with some minerals and wild flowers, following through to a round, silky medium body and a long, fresh finish. A long time favorite." James Suckling

Beautiful floral and a scent of pineapple and peach, sage and thyme. Equally dynamic is the slightly mineral taste. The Morabianca also shows the great class of the producer! SUPERIORE.DE

"Dried peaches, cooked apples and some spiced pears on the nose. Stones, too. Full-bodied and very dry falanghina with flavors of dried limes, dried thyme and lemon zest." James Suckling

The aromatic Fiano is impressive, with a scent of white peaches, a taut, slightly mineral taste and a charming aftertaste. SUPERIORE.DE

"A streak of smoky minerality underscores the flavors of ripe plum and star fruit, chopped almond and candied orange peel in this creamy, light-bodied white. Fresh, lightly spiced finish." Wine Spectator

What could be better for the italophile white wine lover than a Greco di Tufo and, what is more, from the hands of the esteemed Piero Mastroberardino. Inviting the scent of white peaches, melon and citrus fruits. Generous and typical taste, soft and mineral, but not heavy - carried by a controlled lively acidity. SUPERIORE.DE

Mastroberardino is particularly concerned with the ancient grape variety Fiano. It was already cultivated by the Romans, who called it Vitis apiana because of its special attraction to bees (apis). It produces a wine - straw yellow and wonderfully aromatic with a spicy honey and nut bouquet. The characteristic taste is very harmonious. SUPERIORE.DE

"This is lightly creamy and minerally, a light-bodied white with an overtone of smoke and stone layered with the well-cut acidity and flavors of Asian pear, pickled ginger and lemon thyme." Wine Spectator

"Exotic-fruit, pear and white-spring-flower aromas mingle together with a delicate whiff of smoke. The savory, vibrant palate features white stone fruit, lemon drop and a hint of honeyed almond alongside tangy acidity. A saline note adds depth." Wine Enthusiast

"The 2019 Fiano di Avellino Radici is remarkably fresh and vibrant, showing ripe pear with hints of mango. A whiff of smoky florals evolve as the Radici sweeps across the senses with grace, displaying flavors of ripe orchard fruits, then savory hints of sage and minerals. The finish is long and fresh, neatly framed by a twang of residual acids with a saline quality, which begs for another sip." Vinous

"The lemons, lemon grass and dried peaches are embracing on the nose, following through to the palate with a creamy texture and a long, precise finish. Nicely focused." James Suckling

Generously his Bouquet of yellow peaches and aniseed. Ripe, yet incredibly fresh fruit on the palate, very harmonious and varied. In the long final we discover, besides a mineral note, a delicate touch of caramel, very nice interpretation of a Greco di Tufo. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2019 Greco di Tufo Novaserra is savory to the core, with notes of dusty florals, exotic spice, and young pear up front. With time in the glass, it gains richness, taking on green citrus and a hint of hazelnut. On the palate, I’m finding this Greco to have a fresh and vibrant display, soothing the senses with ripe, citrus-tinged apple, while stimulating acids and minerals build through the long and zesty finish." Vinous

"White spring blossom, exotic fruit and peach aromas shape the enticing nose. It's savory and medium in weight, doling out Meyer lemon, honeydew melon and ripe yellow apple before a tangy saline finish. Bright acidity lifts the juicy flavors." Wine Enthusiast

"Aromas of honeydew melon, crushed stones, thyme, and dried peaches follow through to a full body with a dense palate and lots of white pepper and spice on the finish. Very typical." James Suckling

A savoury and spicy Fiano di Avellino, which impresses with its fruitiness and aromas of sausage, bacon and smoke. Complex on the palate of tropical fruits, candy and minerals, full-bodied and long. SUPERIORE.DE

"Subtle but enticing scents of yellow pear, smoke, citrus and hazelnut lift out of the glass along with hints of cedar. The aromas follow through to the elegantly structured palate, together with citrus zest and a hint of acacia honey. Showing the aging potential of Fiano di Avellino, this is a serious white made to accompany an entire meal rather than being poured as an aperitivo." Wine Enthusiast

Most of the grapes for the Radici Taurasi come from selected areas around Mirabella from volcanic soils and a smaller part from Montemarano, mainly from southern exposure with clay soils. Juicy dark cherries, cinnamon, plums, spices, incense, tobacco and a variety of aromas and flavours flow from the glass. On the palate it is tight and not a bit playful, but of good structure. The acid-tannin ratio and the almost unrestrained power of this wine indicate a long and very positive maturation period. SUPERIORE.DE

"Wonderful aromas of ripe berries, pepper and flowers follow through to a full body with round, velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. But it remains in balance and check. A gorgeous Taurasi!" James Suckling

"Deep ruby-red. Refined aromas of red cherry, tobacco, oak and delicate herbs. Dense, rich and suave, with harmonious acidity lifting and extending the red fruit and sweet spice fruit flavors. A lovely wine with sneaky concentration." VINOUS

Still a bit angular and rustic in its early years, the 2012 will now - after several years of deserved bottle maturity - reveal the true potential of a Radici Taurasi. Opulent, warm bouquet of cherries and black berries, along with spicy and wild herbal notes. On the palate it is finely woven, elegant and envelopingly silky, the fullness and complexity of this Aglianico inspires more with every sip. Even though it can mature for many years, it is already an unforgettable pleasure. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2012 Taurasi Radici is still in the process of integrating. Under that sweet spice and toast, you definitely get a clear glimpse of the pretty fruit below. Morello cherry and dried blackberry give substance and fiber to the core of this robust red wine." Robert Parker

"Black-walnut, blackberry and black-olive aromas follow through to a full body, round and chewy tannins and a flavorful finish. Very rich and intense." James Suckling

"Underbrush, red fruit, dark spice and a whiff of menthol are some of the aromas that come together on this. The firmly structured elegant palate offers ripe plum, red cherry, licorice and tobacco framed in youthfully austere fine-grained tannins that need time to unwind." Wine Enthusiast

"Lovely hints of spice box, graphite and violet accent the pure black currant and black cherry fruit in this harmonious, full-bodied red. There's good density to this focused version, with savory wild herb and tarry mineral details showing on the creamy, lingering finish." Wine Spectator
