Cantina del Taburno

I can’t say enough good things about Cantina del Taburno. I’ll limit myself to noting that this co-operative makes outstanding wines and sells them at very affordable prices. It is, in my view, the best social co-op in all of central and southern Italy. The cantina is owned by the Consorzio Agrario Beneventano, founded in 1901, but the current building was built in 1972. Located in Foglianise, the Cantina has a huge lab, and carries out many microvinifications and much experimentation, putting it at the forefront of Campanian research in wine. The wines were already much above average in the 1990s, although the turning point was undoubtedly the arrival in 2000 of Luigi Moio, a university enology professor and consulting winemaker (he also makes wine at his own estate) who is one of Italy’s three or four top experts on the grapes of Campania. The Cantina del Taburno is especially adept at turning out flavorful, precise Falanghina and Coda di Volpe wines that are hard to beat for the money. Only the so-so 2014 vintage prevented this co-op's wines to earn higher scores this year.
