IN THE SOUTH, CAMPANIA IS HOME TO ITALY'S FINEST WINES Palagrello Bianco is found in the province of Caserta. Quite rich on the palate, typical aromas include lemon peel, orange zest and grapefruit, and in warmer years, notes of papaya and golden apples. Some examples, such as the Morrone from Alois winery are vinified in wood for a few months; these offer beautiful white and yellow spice notes, and display lovely texture.

CAIATÌ ALOIS 100% PALLAGRELLO BIANCO The name derives from Casertan dialect because of the grape’s tiny round shape. It is a vigorous varietal, producing grapes with high sugar content. Native to the hills around the Campania town of Caiazzo, the Pallagrello may be related to an ancient varietal mentioned by Pliny the ElderThe wine was the favorite of the Bourbons when they ruled in Naples. It has now become a favorite of mine. The Wines of Michele Alois at IL Gattopardo | Charles Scicolone on Wine
