"Tognano" is the winery's cru, made from Fiano di Avellino in the Contrada Tognano in the village of Arianiello. Renaissance documents mention Contrada Tognano as one of the best for Fiano production. The vines were grafted onto 100-year-old Fiano clone plants, grown on clay and sandy soils at an altitude of 500 meters in a dry, breezy climate.
