La Casa dell'Orco
La Casa dell'Orco is situated in Toscana, central Italy, where it produces wines rooted in southern Italian grape varieties. The winery's portfolio centers on Aglianico, a dark-skinned variety native to Campania that yields structured, age-worthy reds with earthy depth and tannin grip. Its Aglianico Irpinia and Taurasi—both expressions of this varietal—have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast and Wine Spectator. The winery also works with Greco, a white variety prized for its mineral character and acidity, evident in its Greco di Tufo. These wines reflect the volcanic soils and continental climate of their source regions, where Aglianico and Greco have long established themselves as serious expressions of terroir.
