You can find this Greco di Tufo in the Pope Francis' menu!
Aged in the bottle. Transparent as tears pale straw deep yellow / orange with greenish highlights. Tasting Notes: floral, flavors of apple and pear, together with tropical fruit nuances with an important note of melon. Very fresh for the high acidity. With its sugary residue it also gives a nice sense of roundness. Maybe there is the better white (orange ) wine in the world...
Grape: authentic 100% Greco from the region Campania, Tufo Village (Italy)
Vintage: 2015. The great changes in temperature have made this year among the best harvests in the last 10 years
Food-Wine Pairing: shellfish, raw fish and soups, raw meet, turkey and white meat
Vinification: The grapes are harvested in 3(!) different periods: 1- with the clusters still green, to extract the acidity; 2- grapes are perfectly ripe; 3- The late harvest in 2 months from the 1st to obtain high concentrations of sugars. All are pressed separately and then mixed in a single wine. Steel barrels at mixed temperatures which also go below 0. The aging in bottle stabilized the wine.
