What are the best wines from Campania? 



Among the best wines from Campania we can mention important wines such as Taurasi DOCG, Greco di Tufo DOCG, Fiano di Avellino DOCG, Aglianico del Taburno DOCG and many others. Aglianico is certainly among the best wines from Campania. It is a red grape variety that gives life to numerous denominations of Campania wines such as Taurasi DOCG, Aglianico del Taburno DOCG, Cilento Aglianico DOC and many others. Aglianico gives life to particularly tannic, fruity, spicy and full-bodied wines, particularly suited to aging.

Aglianico del Taburno is an Italian appellation for red and rosé (rosato) wines that are made with a minimum of 85% Aglianico grapes. The ruby-red Aglianico-based wines are typically full-bodied with aromas of dark fruit such as blackberry, currants, and plums that are often accompanied by notes of spices, undergrowth, and tobacco.

These wines can age well, and while the minimum for regular red Aglianico del Taburno is two years, the Riserva label has to be aged for a minimum of three years, including one year in oak. Aglianico del Taburno reds are best served with meat, especially roasts, stews and sauces, but they can also work well with aged cheese.
