It is most famous for its Aglianico-based wines made under the Taurasi DOCG, but makes a wide range of wines from across the region. The estate's history began in the mid 18th century in Avellino when it was founded by Pietro di Berardino, but it was in 1878 when it was officially founded as a winery by Angelo Mastroberardino. Since World War II, Mastroberardino has grown in size and has become most influential winery in the Campania region. The winery accounted for more than half of the region's production for much of the 20th Century, and at one point more than 90 percent of the Taurasi DOCG output. The modern winery produces roughly 150,000 cases annually. When other Italian and Campania producers began to introduce international varieties to boost sales, Mastroberardino doubled down on efforts to refine – and preserve – quality local varieties like Aglianico, Fiano, Greco, Piedirosso and Sciascinoso, working with ampelographers to prevent the grapes from disappearing. The catalogue of wines is fairly large, but the most renowned offerings come from the three DOCG regions the estate has vineyards in: Taurasi, Greco di Tufo and Fiano di Avellino. Taurasi in particular has been successful for Mastroberardino, with the Radici Riserva Taurasi being the most highly regarded. In 1996, Mastroberardino started the Villa dei Misteri project in tandem with Pompeii excavations. This project uses viticultural techniques and grape varieties from ancient Rome, with the aim of capturing the style of wine of the Roman Empire. It goes as far as to use fruit from vineyards planted within excavation sites in Pompeii. The majority of Villa dei Misteri wine is sold at auction with proceeds funding research of historical viticultural sites in Campania.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","published_at":"2024-03-15T16:45:12-04:00","created_at":"2024-03-13T15:32:40-04:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_Italy","Other_Wine","Producer_Mastroberardino","Region_Campania","RK110324","Source_VendorEmail0324","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Aglianico"],"price":968300,"price_min":968300,"price_max":968300,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44481380679818,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"1973 | Mastroberardino | Radici Riserva","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":968300,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/68_47945cdf-e801-45de-a2ca-37275b2cc577.png?v=1710358588"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/68_47945cdf-e801-45de-a2ca-37275b2cc577.png?v=1710358588","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"1973 | Mastroberardino | Radici Riserva at CaskCartel.com","id":26466300690570,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.316,"height":395,"width":125,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/68_47945cdf-e801-45de-a2ca-37275b2cc577.png?v=1710358588"},"aspect_ratio":0.316,"height":395,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/68_47945cdf-e801-45de-a2ca-37275b2cc577.png?v=1710358588","width":125}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 1973 | Mastroberardino | Radici Riserva\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA focused and fragrant red, leading with hints of pencil shavings, violet, tobacco and citrus that accent flavors of blackberry and black cherry fruit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrder from the Largest \u0026amp; Most Trusted Premium Spirits Marketplace! \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatured in\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eROLLING STONE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMEN'S JOURNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUS WEEKLY\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOTICE:\u003c\/strong\u003e Many other small liquor store sites may end up cancelling your order due to the high demand, unavailability or inaccurate inventory counts.  We have partnerships consisting of a large network of licensed retailers from within the United States, Europe and across the world ensuring orders are fulfilled.   \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eProducer:\u003c\/b\u003e Mastroberardino\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVintage\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1973\u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 750ml\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eABV:\u003c\/strong\u003e 13.5%\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Aglianico\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCountry\/Region:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Italy, Campania\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eDetailed Description\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA focused and fragrant red, leading with hints of pencil shavings, violet, tobacco and citrus that accent flavors of blackberry and black cherry fruit.
