Cellar
It all began in 2000, when Elena Fucci decided not to sell and give the beautiful vineyards surrounding the family home another chance.
The vineyards had been acquired in the 1960s by her grandfather Generoso, buying the highest part of the estates located in Contrada Solagna del Titolo at the foot of Monte Vulture. Over the years, Elena Fucci's great-grandfather and grandfather had taken care of the vineyards, limiting themselves to selling the grapes and producing for self-consumption. Elena Fucci made a sudden change of direction, thus changing her life's plans and those of her family: she decided to invest in the land and the resource that had allowed her father and even earlier her grandparents and great-grandparents to live and grow in Vulture.
The winery thus came to life with the 2000 harvest, in parallel with his university studies at the Faculty of Viticulture and Oenology. The choice of the company is to focus on a single product, the 'TITOLO'. a single wine for objective reasons related to vineyard yields and the quality given by the ripeness of the vines; a single wine to best represent the specificity of Aglianico and the territoriality of Vulture, which offers this vine a unique expression; a mix of microclimate and terroir that in Contrada Solagna del Titolo gives one of the best possible expressions.
