Greco di Tufo

Greco di Tufo

Greco di Tufo is a particularly distinct wine hailing from a sunny corner of the Campania region in Italy. Named after the principal grape variety and the calcareous tuffaceous type of soil of its indigenous area, Greco di Tufo reflects the rich terroir of its origin splendidly. The area is known for its perfectly sloping hillsides and volcanic landscape, providing idyllic conditions for cultivating the Greco grape.

With a striking uniqueness in style, Greco di Tufo carries an intensely aromatic character, breathing a lively freshness into any atmosphere. The wine stands out with its characteristic hues of bright straw yellow, sometimes tinged with greenish reflections. On the nose, it offers a mixed bouquet of scents including ripe peaches, almonds, and a flirtatious hint of anise.

This wine stands apart with its well-structured palate and substantial body. Flavours of zesty citrus fruits, ripe apples and pears, subtly nuanced with the minerality traceable to the specific soil, give it an inviting complexity. It's supported by a distinctive acidity, conferring crispness which softens considerably with the ageing process.

One of the mainstays of Campanian viniculture, the Greco di Tufo, showcases an exceptional potential for ageing, with its flavour profile steadily developing and refining over time. This wine is versatile when it comes to food pairings, but shines spectacularly with seafood dishes, creamy cheeses, and white meats.

Arguably one of Italy’s most thriving white varietals, the Greco di Tufo presents an exciting proposition for wine lovers and connoisseurs alike. Driven by uniqueness and surprising complexity, it reflects the character of its land and people, embracing and magnifying the generous resources of the vineyards of Campania.

In a nutshell, experiencing Greco di Tufo is like embarking upon a sensory journey into the heart of Southern Italy's wine tradition. It is a wine with a compelling personality and welcoming spirit, encapsulating the soul of Campania in every sip.
