The Greco di Tufo has a very small appellation where, however, countless micro-territorial differences emerge.
In the upper part of the Ponte dei Santi hamlet of the municipality of Altavilla Irpina in the province of Avellino, is our 1.3-hectare Greco vineyard at 550 meters above sea level. where we grow the grapes used to produce this wine. The vinification takes place entirely in steel vats and then refines on the fine lees for 12 months in the same vinification vats and 12 months in bottle.
