Italy's Shin by Ben Weinberg I was recently in Campania, Italy, for the first edition of the Campania Stories festival near the town of Sannio, and for Taurasi Vendemmia, a ten-year-old festival celebrating the noblest expression of Aglianico in the villages of Avellino and Taurasi. Originally colonized by ancient Greeks, Campania is a place where lemon and blood orange groves punctuate grape vines and olive trees. It is rich in gastronomy, music, architecture and archaeology, including ancient sites such as Pompeii, Herculaneum, Paestum and Velia. Rich natural beauty also makes Campania an important tourist destination, especially along the Amalfi Coast, Mount Vesuvius, the island of Capri, and the capital of Naples, a frenetic, food-mecca metropolis.
