History
The goal of the three brothers is to create wines using the most common native varieties in Irpinia, such as Fiano, Greco, Aglianico and Coda di volpe, in order to enhance the rich heritage of inherited cultural traditions. They proceeded with planting the vineyards and in 1986 introduced their first wines, giving life to the Di Meo winery. While the Irpinia wine industry was experiencing a phase of significant growth, with the recognition of the three DOCGs for Fiano di Avellino, Greco di Tufo and Taurasi, together with a notable growth in the production of high quality wines, the project Di Meo’s winemaking business has evolved rapidly. The property, once owned by the Caracciolo Princes, is located in a hilly area with gentle slopes and a dominant view of an evocative hunting lodge dating back to 1700.
