Cradle of southern Italy's great wines on volcanic soils. Majestic Aglianico in red: structured, deep and tannic with notes of black cherry, candied plum, leather and spices, sublimated in age-worthy Taurasi DOCG, the "Barolo of the south". Identity whites of Irpinia: opulent Fiano di Avellino (honey, hazelnut), mineral iodine Greco di Tufo, aromatic Falanghina (peach, flowers). Also supple Piedirosso.
~42,000 ha around Naples and Vesuvius.
Lively, fresh dry whites with a pale golden robe, a slender palate and preserved acidity. Signature aromas of citrus (lemon, grapefruit), white flowers, white-fleshed fruits (green apple) and volcanic mineral notes from the Canaries. Refreshing Atlantic profile. Grown on small plots in the Canary Islands, contributing to Spain's Atlantic wine identity. Native Spanish and Portuguese white grape of the Canaries and Galicia (Forastera Blanca).
wines from the region of Campania go well with generally quite well with dishes of beef, pasta or lamb such as recipes of monkfish with vegetable tagliatelle, pasta with parmesan cream and ham or grilled lamb shoulder with spices and honey.
