Sannio DOP Greco - Janare - La Guardiense is an authentic expression of the Sannio territory, an area historically recognized for the production of high-quality wines. Produced by the cooperative La Guardiense, founded in 1960 and today known for its dedication to sustainability and enhancement of native varieties, this wine represents the perfect balance between tradition and innovation.

The Sannio DOP Greco from Janare stands out for its straw-yellow color with greenish reflections, a sign of its freshness and youth. On the nose, a complex and inviting bouquet emerges: notes of fresh fruit such as peach and pear blend with nuances of white flowers and mineral hints, reminiscent of the region's rich volcanic soils.

On the palate, the wine is elegant and well-balanced. The lively acidity is well integrated with a solid structure that leads to a persistent and refreshing finish. These characteristics make it an ideal companion for a variety of dishes, from grilled fish to light appetizers, to fresh cheeses and dishes of Mediterranean cuisine.

The winemaking process follows methods that respect the integrity of the fruit: fermentation occurs at a controlled temperature in stainless steel containers, thus preserving the natural aromatic qualities of the Greco grape.

Sannio DOP Greco - Janare - La Guardiense is a wine that not only tells a rich wine history but also witnesses the commitment to producing quality wines that best express the potential of their terroir. A must for enthusiasts in search of authentic and characteristic Italian wines.

Over the decades it has expanded its membership and production activities: first documented harvest in 1963, start of sparkling wine production in 1986, and international recognition as early as the 1970s. In the 2000s the winery established an ongoing collaboration with oenologist Riccardo Cotarella and developed research and zoning projects such as “I Mille” and “Janare.” In recent years the cooperative has undertaken sustainability and innovation initiatives, obtaining certifications and producing a corporate sustainability report.
