Terroir
Human factors
- Ancient Campanian wines (Falerno, Greco, Caleno) derive from varieties such as Vitis Hellinica and Vitis Apiana, described by Pliny, Columella, Virgil, and Cato.
- Campania has preserved over the centuries training systems and grape varieties of extremely ancient origin, thanks to the unbroken practices of local winegrowers.
