In the year 2000, Mila Voulo took an opportunity to leave Rome and return home to the Amalfi Coast to live out her dream of restoring the historical vineyard and farmhouse her father bought when she was sixteen. T

Located in southern Italy’s Campania region, the IGT Colli di Salerno (hills of Salerno) is a sweeping appellation that covers the coastal land from the Amalfi Coast to the Cilento Coast along many of the hills close to the Mediterranean.

A perfect view of the picturesque and iconic limestone hill, Monte Tubenna, Mila’s hazelnut and olive trees and a wild forest surround the vineyard on all sides. The vines are planted on clay soil rich in limestone and organic matter, full of nutrients and a good natural water storage capacity to keep the vines happy under the hot southern Italian sun. Beneath the clay are deposits of limestone pebbles that rest on a limestone bedrock. This gives the more vertical elements of the wine, while the clay gives it a more horizontal richness. It’s a perfect place for high quality viticulture and its storied past is no surprise.
