6,00 32,00 

White wine produced only with Greco grapes from three different vineyards located in as many municipalities in the province of Avellino and precisely: Montefusco, Tufo and Altavilla Irpina.
Bunches are harvested manually and transported to the cellar in small boxes to avoid crushing the berries. Grapes are subjected to a soft pressing of whole bunches to obtain the flower must. The vinification and aging on the fine lees for 4 months takes place entirely in steel vats.

Select the format you prefer: 375 ml, 750 ml classic or 1.5 l Magnum.
