BICU DE FREMUNDI

On the slopes of Guardia Sanframondi, between two hundred and fifty and four hundred meters of altitude, Bicu de Fremundi cultivates seven hectares of vineyards within a total area of eight. Its sole denomination, `Aglianico del Taburno DOCG`, arises from deliberately contained figures: a winery producing seven hundred quintals per year and approximately twenty-five thousand bottles, a measure of a choice oriented towards small volumes rather than quantity. Around `Aglianico`, the reference grape, move the most typical varieties of Sannio—`Falanghina` and `Montepulciano`—flanked by noble recovered cultivars such as `Malvasia di Candia` and `Greco`. This is a setup that tells the story of the territory without forcing it, seeking the definition of character in the hilly altitude and the division of the rows. The result is an `Aglianico del Taburno` expressed with discretion, where the precision of winemaking weighs more than declared power, and the reduced scale of the winery itself becomes part of the method, not a limit to be overcome.
