Allegro Novello Benevento wine

Allegro Novello Benevento is a distinctive Italian wine produced by La Vinicola del Titerno, a winery situated in the Campania region, specifically in Massa di Faicchio near Benevento. This particular product is classified as a 'Novello' wine, which is the Italian equivalent of France's Beaujolais Nouveau. It is released shortly after the harvest to be consumed young, typically characterized by its fresh and fruity profile.

The wine is produced under the 'Benevento IGT' (Indicazione Geografica Protetta) designation, ensuring its geographical provenance. It is crafted primarily from regional grape varieties such as Sangiovese, Barbera del Sannio, and Aglianico using carbonic maceration—a technique where whole grapes are fermented in a carbon dioxide-rich environment to enhance floral and fruity aromas while keeping tannins low.

Ownership of the brand resides with the Di Leone family, who have operated La Vinicola del Titerno for generations. The company remains a family-owned entity focused on blending traditional viticulture with modern winemaking techniques to highlight the unique terroir of the Sannio area.
