Here is some interesting information about the wine region in Campania:

Campania’s vineyards boast of white-wine varieties like Fiano and Greco, which are championed by the region’s most respected white wines, Fiano di Avellino and Greco di Tufo. The original name for the 2000-year-old Fiano was Vitis apiana (Latin for “vine of the bees”).

Campania has the distinction of growing some of the best grape varieties in the world. Aglianico is the grape that is used in the making of the region’s two prized red wines, Taurasi and Aglianico del Taburno.

The noted wine producing regions of Campania include the Benevento province, Caserta province, Salerno and Naples provinces, the Sorrento Peninsula, and Cilento in the south. Grape varieties grown here include the white Biancolella and Coda di Volpe, and the red Piedirosso and Aglianico.
