Colli di Salerno

About the wine

The Colli di Salerno IGT covers the entire administrative territory of the province of Salerno in the Campania region. This denomination is highly permissive, allowing for a wide range of wine styles including white, red, and rosato, as well as specialized versions such as frizzante, amabile, passito, and novello. The region is characterized by diverse geomorphology, ranging from coastal hills to inland mountainous areas, often featuring volcanic soils and a Mediterranean climate. The disciplinare emphasizes the historical significance of viticulture in the area, dating back to ancient times, and highlights the use of both traditional and modern training systems. While the IGT allows for a broad range of grapes suitable for the province, it provides specific regulatory frameworks for varietal-labeled wines, which must contain at least 85% of the stated grape. The production is deeply tied to the local terroir, which balances maritime influence with volcanic soil complexity to produce distinct, high-quality wines.
