Mastroberardino

Mastroberardino is one of the oldest winemaking firms in Italy, producing classic wines from Campania since the 1700's. The historic cellars in Atripalda, still in use today, date back to the early 1800's, where precious artistic masterpieces are showed, representing a wondering synthesis between tradition and innovation (some details from these works are also reproduced on the wine labels). In 1878 the Cavaliere of Italian Crown Order, Angiolo Mastroberardino, registered the company into the Avellino Chamber of Commerce. That's why he's been recognized as official founder, notwithstanding the fact the company had been operating for several decades. Nowadays the company's top management is leaded by family members representing the tenth generation (represented by Piero Mastroberardino) since the establishment of its historical headquarter in Atripalda, even today located in the ancient cantina.

With a production of roughly 2,400,000 bottle per year, the company operates over 350 hectares (725 acres), 150 of which under direct family ownership and the rest obtained under several long-term rent contract.

This is the smart blend of ancient culture's style and character together with most innovative and high quality technologies.
