The “Terra di Lavoro” by Galardi is an iconic wine from Southern Italy, a refined blend of Aglianico and Piedirosso, a pure expression of the most authentic Campania. Aged for 12 months in new oak barrels, it is a red of extraordinary structure, elegance, and longevity. For years, it has been celebrated by international and national critics, repeatedly recognized as the best Italian wine overall. The bouquet is wide and enveloping: red berry fruits, balsamic notes of resin, spices, and vegetal accents, with the unmistakable mineral trace typical of the volcanic terroir. On the palate, it is deep, with firm tannins, and finishes with an exceptionally long persistence. A wine for contemplation, ideal for important dishes and memorable aging.

THE COMPANY
The commitment to transforming the vineyard and winemaking practices, undertaken in 1991, bore its first fruit with the 1993 harvest.
The result was a wine that, despite its youth, already showed all the expressive potential of a great wine at its debut. 1994 marks the definitive birth of "TERRA DI LAVORO".
THE PHILOSOPHY
The potential of the volcanic soil and the meeting with Riccardo Cotarella, a highly skilled winemaker particularly sensitive to the recovery and enhancement of wines from the South, led to the birth, in 1993, of Terra di Lavoro, a product that was an incredible surprise for everyone. From a close collaboration between the protagonists of this beautiful adventure, we have today transitioned to an efficient and modern structure animated by the same spirit.
THE WINERY
With a careful blend of Aglianico and Piedirosso, once called "Pere ‘e Palummo", obtained from vineyards exposed to the Southwest at an altitude of four hundred to five hundred meters above the enchanting Gulf of Gaeta, Terra di Lavoro is produced, a wine of great structure, appropriately aged in small oak barrels.
