Calatia

Campania's native grapes. Casavecchia and Pallagrello Nero in focus.

Calatia works with the native grapes of Campania, the volcanic region of Southern Italy where ancient varieties persist in modern form. The winery's portfolio centers on Casavecchia and Pallagrello Nero—indigenous cultivars that define the terroir of this corner of the Tyrrhenian coast. Casavecchia Terra Antica Campania, a single-varietal expression, shows the depth these grapes can achieve. Terra Antica Donna Rosa blends Pallagrello Nero with Casavecchia, marrying the two traditions. Terra Antica Pallagrello Nero isolates the latter variety, revealing its character in pure form. Wine Advocate has rated these wines, recognizing their structure and regional authenticity. Campania's volcanic soils and Mediterranean climate shape wines of mineral tension and dark fruit—expressions of place rather than fashion.
