Working vineyards planted between 500 and 700 metres above sea level on limestone and clay soils, Picariello has become one of the leading figures in modern southern Italian white wine, particularly for Fiano. Farming is organic in practice, with all work carried out by hand and a strong focus on low yields and late harvesting to achieve full physiological ripeness while retaining acidity.

Grapes were harvested late to ensure depth and texture, then fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless steel, followed by ageing on fine lees to build structure without softening the wine’s natural edge.
