Wineries and Tastings in Campania
Irpinia, Sannio, and Cilento: Ancient Vineyards of Southern Italy
Campania is home to some of Italy's oldest native grape varieties: Fiano and Greco in Irpinia, Aglianico which finds one of its finest expressions here, Falanghina del Sannio, and the coastal wines of Cilento among terraced vineyards with sea views. Volcanic soils, temperature variations, and a millennia-old tradition give rise to mineral whites and long-lasting reds. Campanian wineries combine tastings and tours with traditional country and seafood dishes. Book your winery visit in Campania at the same price as the producer, with immediate confirmation.
