Naples holds a unique place in Europe’s wine scene. Despite its intense urbanization, it remains the second-most vineyard-covered city in Europe. This unusual balance between city and vineyard has fostered a deep connection between land and people, blending history with modernity.
Mezanotte | Four Generations of Winemaking Tradition
For over a century, the Varchetta family (Mezanotte) has dedicated itself to producing exceptional wines. Since 1891, their passion and expertise have defined their approach, blending tradition with innovation.
They carefully hand-harvest grapes from the region’s best vineyards, ensuring quality and authenticity. Every step, from vineyard management to harvest, follows strict manual techniques to protect the grapes’ natural characteristics and enhance the final expression of each wine.
Campania | A Land of Historic Vineyards
Campania has long been known for its rich winemaking heritage. Its diverse landscapes and microclimates allow unique grape varieties to thrive, shaping wines of great character and distinction.
In areas near Naples, the volcanic soils, rich in ash and lapilli, create the perfect environment for Piedirosso and Falanghina. These varieties survived the phylloxera crisis, which devastated many European vineyards. Meanwhile, in Avellino and Benevento, the clay-rich soils and colder winters provide the ideal conditions for Greco, Fiano, and Aglianico.
Despite extensive research, Campania’s vineyard heritage still holds undiscovered potential. This legacy ensures a bright future for regional viticulture, keeping its unique terroir and native varieties at the forefront of Italian winemaking.
