Greco
di Tufo
Docg 2023
6,00 € – 32,00 €
White wine produced only with Greco grapes. 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 takes place entirely in steel vats.

Color: intense and compact straw yellow.
Nose: typical of altitude wines, green apple, jasmine, cedar and wild honey scents. A well-integrated mineral and mentholated note in the background. The young wine has primary aromas which after 5/10 years evolve into fascinating puffs of hydrocarbons.
Palate: full and fresh mouth. The finish is long and persistent with very evident sapidity.
Recommended pairings: perfect for risotto and white meats. Great for fish or smoked meats. Good match even with blue cheese after a few years of aging.
Dishes to match: lentil and prawn soup; baked turbot with potatoes; fish soup, artichoke risotto; seared tuna; fried octopus; cod “alla pertecaregna”.
