Capolino Perlingieri: A Legacy of Greek Vines

Located in the picturesque Sannio Region of Campania, just 45 miles from Naples, Capolino Perlingieri is a winery steeped in tradition. The estate spans 12 hectares of vineyards and 5 hectares of olive groves, nestled in the fertile Telesina Valley. Here, unique grape varieties, originally imported from Greece, flourish in the rich volcanic soil surrounded by the extinct Taburno volcano and Mount Matese, creating an ideal environment for cultivating rare vines.

A Passionate Commitment to Winemaking

In 2003, Alexia Capolino Perlingieri took the reins of the family winery, reviving the legacy of her grandfather and mother. After her grandfather's passing, her mother continued the winemaking tradition until health issues forced her to step back. Today, Alexia proudly carries on the family’s passion for winemaking, marking nearly 20 years of dedication to this craft as the third generation to manage the estate.

Organic Practices and Unique Varietals

Capolino Perlingieri is committed to organic farming, cultivating distinctive grape varieties across its vineyards in Solopaca. The Pozzillo plot is home to rare Falanghina and Sciascinoso, while the Cesine plot features Greco, Fiano, and Aglianico. Additionally, the estate's olive groves thrive in the breezy hills of Solopaca, Castelvenere, and Benevento. As an organic certified winery, Capolino Perlingieri produces high-quality red and white wines that reflect the unique terroir of the region. For wine lovers seeking a taste of authentic organic wines amidst stunning landscapes, Capolino Perlingieri is a must-visit destination.
