History

Colli di Lapio was established in 1994 by Clelia Romano, after four generations of the family sold grapes rather than bottling. From tiny plots in Lapio, the heartland of Fiano, she and her daughter Carmela make what many consider the reference Fiano di Avellino, alongside a small Greco di Tufo.
