Falanghina del Sannio DOP 2022

The Cantina di Solopaca, in the province of Benevento, is one of the oldest wineries in Campania. And with around 120 thousand hectolitres of wine produced, it also ranks first in 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 around 600 member winegrowers. Artisans of the vineyard who manage their small holdings with passion and skill, bringing to 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 the recognition of controlled origin, in 1974. The varieties cultivated are Falanghina and Aglianico, typical of Sannio Benevento, but also Greco and Fiano. In recent years, traditional grape varieties such as Coda di Volpe and Barbera have also been rediscovered. In total, the company can count on around 1300 hectares of vineyard area, in the municipality of Solopaca, and in 16 neighbouring municipalities.
