Food and Wine tour

It's no problem to eat well in Italy. And in the region of Campania, even more, because there are dozens of products with special quality marks, which confirm that the origin of the goods is controlled and protected, recognized by European laws. Campania has sun, sea and mountains, hills and plains, rivers take their origin from pure mountain springs and lakes , the land is rich in minerals of volcanoes, thanks to all this, the products here are especially delicious.
Naples is the birthplace of pizza and just the Neapolitan pizza, deserved a distinctive quality mark recognized by European laws, "Traditionala Speciality Guaranteed" and the art of its making is included on Unesco’s list of intangible cultural heritage.
Just the cheese mozzarella of Campania is known all over the world. Practically it is a symbol of Italy, if together with it put a green fragrant basil and grape tomato- you will have salad “Caprese” and an Italian flag. In addition to mozzarella, Campania is famous for other types of cheeses.
Fans of fresh fish can taste fish dishes, because we are at the blue sea. All this yummy is prepared using local olive oil. I want to note, that if you want to buy good olive oil, you need to pay attention to the label and take it, where it is indicated that it is 100% Italian, it will not be cheap. It’s because it is sold an European oil made from unknown olives.
The fact that all the best wines are in Tuscany, it's already outdated. The wines of Campania have already won a place at the forefront - Aglianico, Asprinio, Biancollella, Coda di Volpe, Sannio, Taburno, Solopaca, Greco di Tufo and Fiano di Avellino, etc. The Taurasi is called southern Barolo. And the wine of Falerno was famous even during the Roman Empire. So, the tradition of growing the vine goes back many millennia.
All this can be tried during my tours. But we can also make a trip directly to the farm or wine cellars and try “from field to plate” products, taste the wine. These places are located a little farther from the bustle of tourist centers, but such a trip will give you a pleasure of the beauty of nature, the tranquility of provincial towns and villages.
I really like truffles. The region Campania is not deprived of this delicacy, specially trained dogs find it in the local mountain forests. Basically it is black here. The local chef will offer you it in a classic variant, with a tagliolini pasta, but also many other interesting recipes.
And if you succeed to visit one of the local traditional harvest festivals, they are organized especially often in autumn, dedicated, for example, to chestnuts, mushrooms, eggplants or for example torrone (dessert of honey, nuts, chocolate, etc.), the impressions will not be 100 %, but 200%.
