Food
Aglianico and Falanghina — Campania's two great wines
A red the Greeks brought to Italy and a white the Romans drank. Both still made on the same hills, both world-class.
What to drink with what
Falanghina with seafood: spaghetti alle vongole, fritto misto, crudo of red prawns. Look for Mustilli or La Guardiense — €15–20 a bottle from a wine shop.
Aglianico (Taurasi DOCG) with the heavier dishes: ragù alla napoletana, beef cheek, aged caciocavallo. Mastroberardino's Radici is the textbook bottle; Feudi di San Gregorio is the modern foil.
