Asprinio is a grape rarely made as a still white, rather it is preferred as a sparkler as it has racing acidity (particularly trained in this way in Aversa). It’s even said that during the Spanish rule of Naples, the Bourbons preferred serving sparkling Asprinio to their guests at court over the imported Champagne. Historically it was not uncommon to find the wine produced in the now trendy pet-nat style like they do at Aia delle Monache.
