Solopaca

The Cantina di Solopaca, in the province of Benevento, is one of the oldest wineries in Campania. And with around 120,000 hectolitres of wine produced, it is also at the top of regional production. But these numbers should not frighten. Solopaca, in fact, is by no means a heartless industrial colossus. On the contrary, the Cantina di Solopaca is born, grows and develops year after year thanks to the hard work of about 600 member winegrowers. Craftsmen of the vineyard who manage their small businesses with passion and competence, giving the winery only the best fruits of their land. This is how Solopaca DOC was born, the first wine in the Sannio region to obtain recognition of controlled origin, in 1974. The varieties cultivated are Falanghina and Aglianico, typical of the Sannio area of Benevento, but also Greco and Fiano. In recent years, traditional varieties such as Coda di Volpe and Barbera have also been rediscovered.
