In 1992 Michele Alois made his dream come true: bringing back from extinction the indigenous varietals typical of Northern Campania. The first few bottles were released in 1999.
After some experimentation lasted almost 30 years the Alois family has released three long aging wines coming from its best vineyards.
The Alois family began cultivating grapes in 1992, releasing the first few bottles of Casavecchia in year 2000. After almost 30 years in the wine industry, bringing back ancient vines which were almost extinct, the family has decided to release their three “ grand cru “ whose vineyards are located in areas with the best potential and whose grapes have been tested for more than 10 years before deciding to bottle them.

The historical cellar was part of a series of very old farmhouses used by the Royal family at the beginning of the XIX century as lookout towers for their boar huntings. In the cellar they stored the wine and the charcuterie. The groundfloor was home to the barn whose wheat and corn was harvested in the summer and used to attract the boars by spreading the grains allover the fields and make sure they could catch the prey during the hunting day.
