Contrada Salandra Agricultural Company: wines of the Phlegraean Fields
The collection Contrada Salandra Agricultural Company brings together labels that authentically tell the story of the Phlegraean Fields, a unique volcanic territory in Campania where the work in the vineyard and winery is guided by a strong attention to nature and the enhancement of the soil. The company's philosophy stems from the choice of Giuseppe Fortunato and Sandra to build an agricultural project deeply connected to the land, the bees, and the production of wines capable of expressing the identity of the place.
An agricultural project rooted in the territory
Contrada Salandra is located on the Coasts of Cuma, in a historic and panoramic area of the Phlegraean Fields, where viticulture meets an ancient tradition and a landscape of strong personality. The presence of bees in the vineyard testifies to a respectful approach to the ecosystem and biodiversity, while the care in grape cultivation and winemaking allows for the production of precise, territorial, and recognizable wines. It is a reality that coherently interprets the character of the territory, focusing on a few selected grape varieties and a direct, essential, and authentic style.
Falanghina and Piedirosso: the identity of the Phlegraean Fields
The selection includes two fundamental expressions of the area: Falanghina DOP Campi Flegrei 2019 and Piedirosso 2018 DOP Campi Flegrei. The Falanghina of the Phlegraean Fields is appreciated for its fresh and bright profile, with a smooth drinkability that makes it ideal for those seeking a territorial and versatile white. The Piedirosso, on the other hand, represents the more delicate and fragrant face of the Campanian red tradition, with a measured structure and a pleasant savory imprint that recalls the soil of origin.
Both wines express the character of the pre-phylloxera indigenous grape varieties on their own roots, a characteristic that adds value and uniqueness to the winery's production. For those wishing to discover wines deeply connected to their context, this collection offers a coherent journey through freshness, identity, and territory.
