Irpinia

Fiano, Greco, and Taurasi among the Avellino Hills

Irpinia, around Avellino, is perhaps the most prestigious wine region in Campania: here, Fiano di Avellino and Greco di Tufo are born, among the most celebrated southern whites, and Taurasi, often called the "Barolo of the South" for its aging potential based on Aglianico. Volcanic soils and high altitudes give the wines a distinctive minerality. The wineries in the area offer tastings that tell the story of one of the oldest winemaking traditions in Italy. Book your tasting at the same price as the winery.
