This wine sources its fruit from the same Nassano site that Feudi di San Gregorio uses in their Feudi Studi series. The Tenute Capaldo 2019 Greco di Tufo Goleto is a large-scale white wine with an important sense of volume and depth. Some 80% of the wine is aged in tonneaux and 20% in amphorae. Indeed, Greco seems to enjoy a much better oxygen exchange in amphorae compared to Fiano (which tends to oxidize). Showing considerable volume, texture and medium fruit weight, this wine reveals oak spice, classic baking spices, soft peach and poached pear. This is a 6,000-bottle production. ... More details

A rich white, sleek and harmonious, in a medium-bodied frame. Shows a subtle, round fleshiness to the ripe yellow melon and apricot fruit, vanilla and crushed hazelnut flavors, but a racy streak of acidity lends fine definition, while accents of fresh thyme, verbena and stone add greater detail. Fresh, salty finish. Drink now through 2028. 1,233 cases made, 250 cases importe
Winery
Greco grapes originate from selected vines within a 2,5 ha parcel in the San Paolo area – within Tufo town – and namely in the contrade Cicogna, Laura e Nassano. Here the vineyards, over 30 years old, grow near to sulphureous mines and are cultivated following different historic methods, still largely preserved. Harvest is done by hand and generally happens between the first and the second week of October, depending on vintage characteristics. Fermentation happens in stainless steel tanks; then, for the following year, 80% of the cuvee is aged in gently roasted tonneaux and the remaining 20% in amphora. Then, for another year, the wine rests in the bottle before release.

Region: Campania

Campania is a stunning coastal wine region of Italy, home to over a hundred native grape varietals and some of the finest soils and climatic conditions for viticulture on earth. The fine Mediterranean climate crossed with the mineral rich volcanic terroirs produces grapes of exceptional quality and flavor, and as such, Campania has been an important center for wine production for over three thousand years. As one might expect from such an ancient and esteemed wine region, tradition is highly important to the wineries which operate there. Careful attention is paid in order to bring the most representative flavors and aromas out of the grapes, and traditional, time honored techniques are still employed across the region when producing their many highly regarded wines.

Country: Italy

It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.
