We are located in the southern Italian region of Campania—in the province of Caserta, to be exact—in the hills above the Volturno River, which lends its name to the Terre del Volturno IGT appellation, a viticultural zone characterized by important maritime influences both in winter and summer.
This is a landscape rich in biodiversity where vines emerge among forests and olive groves for the cultivation of Pallagrello grapes—both as white and black varieties. Alepa has produced wine from estate-grown fruit since the early 2000s—following low intervention protocols in the cellar including wild yeast fermentations—with average production of about 9,000 bottles per year. Alongside our traditional white and black Pallagrello varietals, the Alepa lineup also includes an orange wine obtained from white Pallagrello grapes that undergo about 7 days of skin maceration.
In addition to Pallagrello, we also grow Falanghina, Greco and other native grape and olive cultivars of Campania.
