Campania is the land of the red wine "Aglianico " a big red , powerfull and with its own personality when young, ideal to accompany barbecued lamb and sausages , and, gentle and elegant ,when properly aged, see the TAURASI ( from Aglianico grapes), the only d.o.c.g wine of the southern Italy. The Piedirosso ( Red Foot ), from the red color of the stem, the second important red of the region, Smooth, fruity and elegant light red wine, this is the basic grape in the blend to obtain the Lacryma Christi del Vesuvio ,"Tears of Christ" is the translation. And, last the old Romans wine "FALERNO" from primitivo grape, the wine of the Roman Emperors, we can say the first wine of the modern era that got the D.O.C. In this region you can also enjoy four very good white wines, two d.o.c.g. "Fiano di Avellino" "Greco di Tufo" and d.o.c. "Falanghina" and "Coda di Volpe" which means, Fox's tail). We can say that, no other country can deliver such a diversity, so many indigenous grapes, and, so different one from the other , each, to match a different typical dish of the region. This is one of the reasons of the increasing interest to the Southern Italy's wines.
