Founded by Peter Wiegner, wife Laura Puccetti, and son Marco; the estate chose Fiano — selected for its affinity with volcanic soil — rather than the more common Carricante, alongside Aglianico and Cabernet Franc on the higher plateau behind the modern winery. Wines are lightly styled and fresh, resembling their environment: a breezy volcanic plateau surrounded by olive groves, fruiting cactus, ginestra, and roses. Guests can come for tastings and meals or stay overnight in the palmento-turned-cottage.
