Cantine Astroni, located in the Phlegraean Fields near Naples, Italy, was founded to celebrate and enhance the region’s native vines while reinterpreting local winemaking traditions with modern enological innovations. The winery rests on the slopes of the Astroni Crater, a former Bourbon hunting reserve now a State Natural Reserve managed by WWF Italy. Its volcanic soils preserve ancient grape varieties such as Falanghina and Piedirosso, allowing wines to express exceptional minerality and original aromas.

Founded by the Varchetta family over a century ago, Cantine Astroni combines tradition and innovation, producing wines that capture the “territory in a glass.” Visitors can explore vineyards, follow the winemaking process, and participate in guided tastings, educational workshops, and cultural events, experiencing local flavors and the winery’s dedication to biodiversity, heritage, and hospitality.

Selected and quality wines. Excellent Falanghina dei Campi Flegrei. Excellent quality/price ratio. I recommend a visit with tasting, by appointment, because it is very interesting.

I have had the opportunity to visit Cantine Astroni several times over the past year, the first time was a pleasant discovery, to date a confirmation of quality. An ideal place to enjoy a day in a relaxing setting and in a perfect atmosphere of conviviality. Cristina, as a good host, masterfully guides the tastings of the winery's excellent wines, making the key aspects visible even to those who have recently approached the world of wine. A visit to the vineyard located in a magical place directly above the Astroni crater is also very pleasant and recommended... the anecdotes told by Cristina make you remember being in a place with a long history! I can't wait to return for the next event!

Christina was very informative and passionate about explaining her family's winery history. The cheese and ham table served with the wines was amazing. However, I think it took over the taste of the wines as they were rather strong in taste and did not pair quite well with the wine tasting. Otherwise, an amazing location but hard to reach without a car. The wines weren't of my preference but I did like the Rosé Brut (70% Piedirosso 30% Falanghina).

I had the opportunity to visit Cantine Astroni on the occasion of an event organized by our Rotaract Club. The route prepared consisted of a sensory laboratory to get closer to wine through the stimulation of taste, smell and touch. Three types of wine from their cellar were combined with some home-made wines and some experiments that entertained and fascinated all the guests. Cristina, who accompanied us, was very good in explaining to us the whole history of the Astroni and accompanying us in this fantastic experience. I will definitely come back for another event.
