AZIENDA AGRICOLA SOMMA UMBERTO

In the south of Campania, Azienda Agricola Somma Umberto oversees a vast landscape encompassing five protected denominations. Four are dedicated to wine, spanning the 58 municipalities of Cilento and the broader Colli di Salerno IGT area, passing through the Castel San Lorenzo DOC and the Paestum IGT. The fifth is the Cilento DOP extra virgin olive oil, characterized by its greenish-yellow hue and fruity, spicy profile. In the vineyard, the estate cultivates Aglianico, Barbera, and Piedirosso, vinified into red, rosé, and white wines, each adhering to minimum alcohol content thresholds that reflect the precision of regional regulations. Wine and oil are not separate paths but two facets of the same commitment to Campania's heritage, rooted in a territory where the coexistence of vines and olive trees has become its hallmark. While not open to visitors, Somma Umberto outlines a coherent production map, where each denomination occupies a precise place in the narrative of Cilento and the Salerno area.
