Viticulture awards and recognition in Campania

Overview

The Campania region has seen several developments regarding wine culture and industry recognition. In early October, the province of Benevento emerged as a leader in the region’s viticulture, with 20 local companies receiving the WineHunter Award Gold 2026 and 30 entities receiving the Award Rosso. This recognition, tied to the Sannio territory, highlights the economic importance of wine production and its role in local tourism.

Later in the month, new awards were established to further promote wine knowledge. In Falciano del Massico, the ‘Premio Gennaro Papa’ was instituted to honor those promoting the culture of the Falerno del Massico DOC. Additionally, in Guardia Sanframondi, the ‘Premio Bacco’ was awarded to journalist Luciano Pignataro during the ‘GustaGuardia’ event, which also hosted discussions on viticulture, climate, and market profitability in the Sannio region.
