Vitigno Italia (typical wine)

The location is unique, Castel dell'Ovo, in the magical atmosphere of Borgo Marinari.
The month is, in my opinion, the best month in Naples; May; and even better is the middle of May, from Sunday 17 to Tuesday 19.




We're talking about the festival/exhibit of the Italian wines made using only local grapes, meaning grapes whose roots, whose seeds are deeply linked with a local ground.
A very smart and fun way to be introduced and to taste the best of the typical Italian wines.
The local grapes (vitigni autoctoni) are more than three hundred and if I were obliged, so to speak, to tell you the first three running in my mind, I say: Nero d'Avola, from Sicily, Sagrantino from Umbria and Coda di Volpe from Campania.

I suggest that you visit this festival if you're in Naples in those days or, better, arrange your trip to Italy so that you can sip some glasses of very good Italian typical wine.
I will be there and I will be glad to meet you and lead you on a visit in the exhibit.
