Corrado Caputo and his sons, Mario and Nicola, innovated the family company, founded in 1890 and handed down for four generations, keeping on interpreting with passion the historical and cultural resources of Campania region wine production.
Caputo 1890 represents the synthesis between the respect of traditional wine practices and the introduction of the latest technologies. Following this philosophy, the company managed to produce high quality wines by which important national and international rewards have been achieved.
At the beginning, the production was concentred on Asprinio di Aversa grapes. Later wines of Vesuvio’s area (Lacrima Christi del Vesuvio white, red and rosé) were first added; then the production was extended to Irpinia (Greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino and Taurasi) and Neapolitan area wines (Falanghina dei Campi Flegrei, Piedirosso dei Campi Flegrei, Gragnano della Penisola Sorrentina); and at the end wines from Sannio (Falanghina and Aglianico) and Caserta hills (Terre del Volturno, Casavecchia, Pallagrello and Falerno) were added.
The main cellar is located in the historic seat of the company, in Teverola, in the tufa caves of the family-owned eighteenth century palace, where Caputos have been producing the Caputo Brut sparkling wine for more than twenty years, following the classical method and with 100% of Asprinio di Aversa grapes: it is the result of years of passionate researches on this ancient and noble wine.
