Wines and Vines of Campania: A Journey Through the Soul of Southern Italy
May 30 – June 6, 2026
Join us for an unforgettable immersion into one of Italy’s most captivating wine regions — Campania — where ancient vines, volcanic soils, and centuries of culture shape every glass. From the mineral-driven whites of the Amalfi Coast to the intriguing reds grown on the slopes of Mount Vesuvius, we’ll explore how the land’s dramatic landscapes and indigenous grape varieties define its wines and cuisine.
Discover Campania’s Wine Culture
Through exclusive visits and intimate tastings, we will meet both historic and modern winemakers bridging Italy’s ancient traditions with innovation and freshness. Along the way, we’ll savor regional dishes that prove “what grows together goes together,” gaining a deeper understanding of how place, people, and flavor intertwine. This is more than a wine trip — it’s a journey through the culture, history, and soul of Southern Italy.
