At the helm of the winery, located in the municipality of San Mango sul Calore, in the heart of Irpinia, are siblings Chiara and Francesco Romano, the former a graduate in Economics and Business Management and the latter in Civil Engineering, both of whom are also sommeliers.

The vines, trained to the spurred cordon system, enjoy the cool Irpinian climate and northern and southern exposure. The bunches of grapes are harvested by hand in the first ten days of November and are then vinified red through alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, with \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e30 days of maceration on the skins\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"\u003e.
