Nennella's Wine Bar, Naples

Nennella's Wine Bar in Naples' Chiaia neighbourhood is a natural wine bar focused on the producers of Campania and the broader south of Italy, operating as an evening aperitivo and small-plates destination in one of Naples' most elegant residential districts. The bar occupies a small, unpretentious space on Via Alabardieri, where a carefully curated selection of natural and low-intervention wines from Campania's major grape varieties — Falanghina, Greco di Tufo, Fiano d'Avellino, Aglianico, Piedirosso, and Tintore — forms the core list, supplemented by bottles from other southern Italian regions and a smaller international selection. The cicchetti menu — Neapolitan small bites intended to accompany wine — typically includes local cheeses, cured meats, bruschette with seasonal toppings, and occasional warm preparations using Campanian vegetables and legumes. This is an excellent venue for visitors wishing to explore the depth and diversity of Campanian viticulture without committing to a full-service restaurant dinner: a glass of volcanic Piedirosso from Vesuvius or a mineral-driven Coda di Volpe from Irpinia provides a direct connection to the landscape of Campania through the medium of its wine. The bar is popular with younger Neapolitans working in the Chiaia area and operates primarily in the evening from aperitivo hour through the late night.
