A gentle suggestion Willie? On the net, posting in all capital letters is the equivalent of yelling. We can hear you just fine without raising the virtual decibel level. :O)

Spoke to my daughter this morning, she lives outside of Naples. Two suggestions for wineries:

Both of these are near Pompeii. Both accessible via the Circumvesuvian, The

Torre Annunziata stop. Eva bus is transport between the two.

http://www.sorrentinovini.com/terra.php?lang=eng in Boscotrecase.

http://www.cantinadelvesuvio.it/?page_id=177 located in Trecase.

This will give you an idea of how to use both means of transport. The one you would want is

The TIC AC ticket. http://www.napoliunplugged.com/naples-unicocampania-fares

If you have time, Paestum is a unique place. Mozzarella farms, beach, museum and beautiful Greek temples.
