Taurasi
Taurasi is a town and municipality in the province of Avellino, Campania, southern Italy. In antiquity it was a town in Samnium. The town's name probably derives from the Latin ''Taurus''. Over time it changed from ''Taurasos'' to ''Taurasia'' (not to be confused with the Taurasia founded in northern Italy by the Taurini, which is now called Turin) before changing to its current form. Taurasi is best known for its increasingly famous red wine also named Taurasi, made of Aglianico grapes along with Piedirosso and Barbera grapes. History According to the epitaph on the sarcophagus of Lucius Cornelius Scipio Barbatus, consul of Rome in 3 BC, he captured ''Taurasia'' (and ''Cisauna'') from the Samnites. However, modern scholars have ruled out that ancient ''Taurasia'' (surely located north-east of '' Beneventum'') could be related to modern Taurasi. Main sights *Porta Maggiore (Main Gate).
