This selection allows you to discover some of the most interesting wines from Campania , one of the Italian regions with the oldest origins in viticulture. The beginning of viticulture, and therefore the arrival of vitis vinifera , seems to date back to the Greeks . The main native vines of the region, such as Aglianico, Greco, Fiano, Falanghina, Biancolella and Piedirosso, are in fact of Greek origin.

Among the most illustrious denominations of the region is Taurasi , based on Aglianico, one of the most interesting Italian red wines and which is experiencing years of rebirth and reevaluation by sector critics. This grape is mainly grown in the provinces of Avellino and Benevento and finds its area of choice in Irpinia.
A structured and aging red wine is obtained, aged in wood, elegant and austere, with tannins present and fine in its best expressions.

Among the denominations of white wines there are Falanghina , Greco di Tufo and Fiano di Avellino . The most suitable areas for the cultivation of Falanghina are the Sannio Beneventano, the Campi Flegrei and the Caserta area. These vines are often grown on volcanic soils , which give the wines finesse and flavor.

The rich ampelography of Campania can also be seen in wines produced from "secondary" native vines, often added to the main grapes, but which can also be found in purity. An indigenous white vine is the Asprinio di Aversa, suitable for its acidity, as its name suggests, also for the production of sparkling wines. Other local white vines are Biancolella and Forestera. Among the red grapes we remember Piedirosso , Sciascinoso and Pallagrello Nero.
