Vinicola del Sannio S.R.L.

The "Samnium wine-making plant" is located in the town of Castelvenere, a busy agricultural centre in the Benevento region, between the Taburno mountains to the south and the Matese mountains to the north. The soils created by these mountain chains are the result of erosive action of the elements and prehistoric rivers, and largely alluvial in nature, being composed mostly of clay and sand along with volcanic elements.

In technological terms, the company is highly advanced and it is managed directly by the Pengue family, which boasts many years' experience in the field of winemaking. The company takes its name from the historical region which was once inhabited by the fearsome warlike Samnites, who came here around the 6th century BC during the "holy spring" in search of open space and grazing lands.
