Azienda Ceraudo e Ristorante Dattilo

If You're Traveling to Naples, Italy, Here Are the Wineries You Have to Visit

"Perched on a hill above the Ionian Sea, this family-run estate pairs a 17th-century baronial nucleus — with a wine cellar, oil mill and tiny church — with Mediterranean gardens, centuries-old olive trees and citrus groves. Hospitality is central: guests stay in rooms or mini-apartments furnished with local ceramics and begin days with gourmet breakfasts showcasing seasonal fruit, organic juices and jams, artisanal bread and local cured meats and cheeses. The on-site Dattilo restaurant (a Michelin star since 2011 and recipient of a green star for eco-friendly practices) is led by the estate’s chef, who draws heavily on the organic farm for flavorful, imaginative cooking. Olive oil and wine are the backbone of the experience, and visitors can extend their stay with horseback riding, sailing, yoga, guided trekking or restorative walks in the nearby Pantano Natural Oasis. Wine to try: Val di Neto Dattilo Gaglioppo, an organically farmed Gaglioppo picked at night, is structured and spicy and pairs well with the intense flavors of Calabrian cuisine." - Federico De Cesare Viola
