Vernice

Colors and Flavors of Nature

Vernice is a winery from inland Campania, founded to rediscover nearly forgotten indigenous grape varieties. Each grape variety has its own distinctive traits, from cluster to leaf, giving the wine unique organoleptic characteristics.

The Vernice project and its wines evoke the colors of nature and the unique flavors of indigenous Southern Italian grapes.

Among the red varieties are Sciascinoso, Piedirosso, and Primitivo, while the white variety Coda di Volpe is named for its fox-tail-shaped cluster. These grapes are vinified in purity and form the core of the Vernice line, producing wines that engage the senses with a rich palette of aromas and flavors.

The name Vernice was inspired by architectural elements in the winery buildings, where concrete vaults and tapered beams, reflecting Giò Ponti and Nervi’s style, emit scents of dried oils and natural resins. The wines represent a sensory journey through ancient Irpinia, reviving almost forgotten indigenous grape varieties.
