Greco di Tufo 'Cutizzi' Feudi di San Gregorio 2021

It is a wine of good structure, with rich, broad and complex aromas, supported by a vibrant freshness, which gives the sip a great gustatory balance.

"Cutizzi" Greco di Tufo belongs to Cantina Feudi di San Gregorio's Selections line, a range of wines that aims to express the best characters of the fortunate combination between grape variety and terroir. It stems from the basic idea of using only the best Greco grapes grown in the vineyards of Santa Paolina, on soils with a fine chalky matrix, which express grapes of great finesse and elegance. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks, at a controlled temperature of 16/18 °C. The wine then rests, again in steel on its own yeasts, for about 4/5 months, with periodic bâtonnage. It completes its aging with a few months in bottle before being released.

Feudi di San Gregorio's "Cutizzi" is a classic example of how the fortunate union between a great native grape variety and a territory can give rise to excellence of the highest level. It is a white of character, intended for those who love structure, depth, expressive freshness and also the ability to evolve and age over time. The color is light yellow with golden highlights. The nose is characterized by intense aromas, with notes of ripe fruit, and nuances of Mediterranean herbs. The palate is broad and rich, with dense and juicy aromas, crossed by a lively citrus freshness, which gives dynamism and momentum to the sip.
