More questions
The Aglianico Irpinia Rossomalpelo of Amarano is born in the heart of Irpinia, a region renowned for its terroir dedicated to the production of great red wines. Made from Aglianico grapes, an indigenous variety historically appreciated for its structure and longevity, this wine elegantly expresses the identity of the Campanian territory. After careful fermentation, the wine matures in selected wooden barrels, an aging process that enhances the aromatic complexity without overpowering the freshness.
In the glass, it presents an intense ruby red color, while the nose opens with scents of ripe wild berries, spicy notes, and light earthy nuances typical of this grape variety. The sip is enveloping, with well-present but silky tannins, balanced acidity, and a long, persistent finish that invites a second taste. Perfect when paired with red meats, game, and aged cheeses, this Aglianico is a refined expression of the most authentic Irpinia.

The story
Amarano was founded as a family-run estate in the Montemarano area of Alta Irpinia. Public sources report the business began in 2004; management is carried out by family members who oversee both the farming and the winemaking decisions. Over time the estate has focused its production on the area's traditional grape varieties, favoring extended aging for the reds and lees contact for the whites.
Production philosophy
The winery declares a strong connection to the tradition of Irpinia: it primarily produces wine from native grape varieties, maintains low yields, reduces the use of chemical products by adopting integrated pest management protocols, and limits the use of sulfites. In the cellar, stainless-steel fermentations alternate with aging in barriques and large casks to enhance the wines' structure and longevity.
Terroir and vineyards
Located in Montemarano, in the heart of Irpinia, the estate cultivates vineyards situated on hills of predominantly volcanic and sandy origin, at elevations of around 500–700 m above sea level. The area is characterized by marked diurnal temperature variation and soils that enhance acidity, minerality and structure in the wines.
