Wine list | Greco di Tufo |
Made from pure Greco di Tufo grapes, this Campania white wine from Petilia Winery comes from the vineyards of Chianche, near Avellino, on clayey soils of volcanic nature rich in mineral components. The October harvest precedes the soft pressing of the whole grapes, with subsequent fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. The final stage of ageing requires bottle ageing for 3-4 months.
Characteristics of this wine from Campania
The organoleptic examination shows a straw-yellow colour with golden reflections. The olfactory bouquet is very rich and recalls orange blossom, acacia, hawthorn and quince. On the palate it is fresh and slightly sapid.
Suggested food pairings with this white wine from Campania
Excellent throughout the meal, particularly recommended with seafood dishes or vegetable and legume soups.
