VESEVO GRECO DI TUFO, CAMPANIA 2020/21

Greco 100%

The name Vesevo is the historic name for Vesuvius. The vineyards are located in the Irpinian hills of Campania, potentially one of Italy’s most exciting wine producing areas. Despite being so far south, there are large differences here between day and night temperatures, making this one of the latest regions in Italy to harvest.

This Greco has a lemon-gold colour. The nose opens with an intense, aromatic perfume of ripe pears with a honeyed, almond note. On the palate, it has stone fruit flavours of yellow peaches, a crisp, mineral character, a mouth-filling body and good length on the finish.
