The vines of the Phlegrean fields therefore have very ancient origins and this is testified by many writers of classical antiquity such as Cato, Varro, Juvenal, Stazio and Pliny who describe with great precision the main characteristics of the Campania vines.

In their works they refer several times to the "Cumano wine", produced in the area of Cuma, a very fine wine and held in great consideration, which was obtained from the vineyards of the Campi Flegrei.

The Roads of the Wine, restricted in Campania by DGR n° 3504/01, want to be an attempt to rationalize and to qualify the enotouring offer. They mean to promote the organization of a combined and coordinated offer that, starting from the wines productions, is able to conjugate all the productive truths that insist in the areas with viticultural vocation of the region: the typical productions, the treasures of art, the tradition, the gastronomy, the handicraft, the culture, the history and the exceptional landscape beauties of our territories.

Such kind of initiatives presuppose clear rules of reference, apt to guarantee the realization of an offer of elevated qualitative level, in a position to supply more and more qualified services in tune with what is demanded from the wine tourist. In the context of the "Roads of the Wine of Campania", the Matilde Zasso Estate is promoter partner of the association "the Roads of the Wine of the Phlegraean Fields" that collects only the most prestigious and historic companies in this territory.
