Donnachiara is located in the province of Avellino, a stone’s throw away from Montefalcione, a town that was already powerful under the Etruscans and has a scythe (symbol of farm work) in the municipal coat of arms. Born in 2005, this modern winery boasts vineyards with ancient properties and almost all female management, including the current CEO Ilaria Petitto, who decided to dedicate herself to grape development. Ilaria is supported by her mother Chiara, the niece of Donna Chiara Mazzarelli Petitto, for whom this company is dedicated. "Perfumes with a very broad aromatic spectrum in which delicious notes of vanilla, small red fruits, layers of plum jam and first complexities of sweet spices blend together. On the palate it appears of complete aristocratic roundness and softness, very elegant in the flavors, of particular enjoyment and gustatory persistence." Donnachiara
