The project Cantine Russo Taurasi starts in 1999 from the idea of continuing the millennial wine-making tradition of Irpinia. We have a clear mission, that is a risk and a challenge at the same time: to use only autochthonous grape in purity to obtain typical and unique wines with a strong personality that represent the identity of Irpinia.

Our vinery of " La Carazita" is about 10 hectares and is entirely cultivated with Aglianico red grape with a yield of 70q per hectare. We use this grapes for Aglianico and Taurasi. White grapes used for Greco, Fiano e Falanghina come from sites with high vocation to the production of each variety. Long term contracts with producers are ensuring us to have high quality grapes all the time.

Our philosophy is to apply a minimal treatment of grapes and wine and a not invasive use of woods to get a a wine that is what the vineyard has produced.

We are onthe market since 2004 with five wines all produced with autochthonous grapes in purity.
