The Provenance Story

From Mastroberardino to your table

Luigi first tasted this vintage at the cantina in Atripalda in 2018 with Piero Mastroberardino. Sourced from high-altitude volcanic clay soils.

Sourced directly by Luigi & Jo Di Caprio on their annual harvest visits to Campania. Every bottle is tasted from barrel to bottle, temperature-controlled in transit, and stored in our Surrey bonded cellar before reaching your door.
