Joaquin Fiano di Avellino Riserva Vigna Campo Aperto 2021 (Magnum)

A Masterpiece of Irpinian Terroir—Profound, Textural, and Timeless

The Vigna Campo Aperto bottling represents one of the purest and most compelling expressions of Fiano produced in Campania today. Sourced from high-altitude, meticulously farmed vineyards in the heart of Irpinia, this Riserva showcases the extraordinary ageing potential and mineral-driven depth for which Joaquin has become renowned.

In the glass, the 2021 reveals layered aromas of candied citrus, white peach, fresh hazelnut, crushed herbs, and subtle wildflower notes. A gentle smokiness and saline edge hint at the volcanic origins of the soil. The palate is medium to full-bodied, richly textured yet remarkably lifted, with a delicate interplay of ripe orchard fruit, flinty minerality, and beautifully integrated acidity. The finish is long, savoury, and precise—an unhurried unfolding of flavour that speaks to both terroir and craftsmanship.

This is a wine of character and quiet power, capable of ageing gracefully while offering immense pleasure in its youth.

Food Pairing

This Riserva pairs superbly with:

– Grilled or pan-seared prawns with lemon zest and herbs

– Butter-poached lobster or scallops

– Roasted chicken with rosemary and citrus

– Aged Caciocavallo, mild Pecorino, or smoked Provola

The wine’s textural richness and mineral backbone make it especially well-matched with seafood, poultry, and cheeses that highlight its complexity.

About The Winery

Founded by Raffaele Pagano, Joaquin has become one of the most admired artisan producers in Campania. The estate is dedicated to bringing out the soul of Irpinia—its ancient volcanic soils, dramatic elevations, and long tradition of cultivating noble white varieties such as Fiano and Greco. Joaquin’s approach has always been unconventional: low yields, extreme selection, extended lees contact, and ageing that prioritises structure and longevity rather than immediate opulence.

Vigna Campo Aperto is one of the estate’s most prized parcels, a site where altitude, exposure, and soil composition converge to create a uniquely expressive Fiano. Fermentations are carried out with meticulous care, often involving long, slow ageing that allows the wine’s full personality to emerge without hurry. The result is a style that marries intensity with purity—a signature that has earned Joaquin a cult following among sommeliers and collectors worldwide.

Today, Joaquin is celebrated not just for technical mastery, but for its philosophical commitment to authenticity. Every bottle reflects Raffaele Pagano’s belief that great wines must speak of place, tradition, and time.
