Informations about region

Campania, a region of Italy located in the southern part of the country with an area of 13 595 square kilometers. Its territory consist of mountains with the range of Apennines (35%), hilly areas (51%), plains (14%). The isles in the Tyrrhenian Sea, Ischia, Capri, Procida, Vivara and Nisida, form separate territory. Along the coast of the Tyrrhenian Sea spreads out the area of the extinct volcano of Roccamonfina, next the Phlegraean Fields - Europe‘s largest volcanic area, and still active and majestic Vesuvius reaching the height of 1279 meters.

The beautiful and picturesque Campania already in the Roman Times was called Campania Felix, rich, happy, prosperous due to its natural resources and rich soil. The vine found excellent growing conditions here already in the Etruscan times, while in the Roman times the wines from Campania were presented at the tables of senators and patricians. Campania‘s finest ancient wines are Falerno and Cecubo. After the collapse of the Roman Empire winegrowing was declining, but in the Middle Ages and under the reign of Kingdom of Naples began its revival.

The historical records at the time mention wines of Greco, Aglianico, Aspirinio, Lacryma, Gragano and Fiano grapes. All the grape varieties exist up to the present day. These grapes provide excellent quality wines, full-bodied, charming by the potential of aromas and flavors. This potential results from the loose structure of soil, on which are cultivated vineyards, rich in iron, sand, clay and volcanic residue. At the food of Vesuvius there are exactly large areas covered with vineyards, the largest in Europe.

Besides beautiful landscapes, the provinces of Caserta, Benevento, Avellino and Neapol are full of oenological wealth. Currently, there are 4 DOCG appellations, Aglianico del Taburno and Taurasi, red wines of Taurasi grape, Greco di Tufo, a white wine of Greco, and Fiano di Avellino, a white wine of Fiano. 15 appellations were granted DOC status.
