San Salvatore 1988

Cilento, Campania, Italy

San Salvatore 1988 was founded in the heart of the Cilento National Park, an ancient land, rich in history and tradition, never touched by intensive agriculture . The winery is located in the same area where the Ancient Greeks began the colonization of Magna Grecia and where for the first time brought Aglianico, Fiano and Greco grapes. San Salvatore has been certified organic by the European Union and adopts exclusively biological processes and biodynamic preparations. They own 110 hectares, 23.5 with vineyards, the rest for olive groves, orchards, vegetable gardens and woodland, in order to maintain a natural balance in the earth. There are two vineyards, the first one and largest, is located in Cannito area, at the foot of Mount Calpazio that protects it from the elements, with a south-southwest exposure towards the nearby sea, which allows it to be kissed from the sun throughout the day and be caressed by the sea breeze. The second, also facing south-southwest, is in Stio Cilento, in the very heart of the National Park, 500 meters above the sea, an altitude that is very challenging.
