Feudi di San Gregorio Santa Lucia Greco di Tufo DOCG 0,75 ℓ

What kind of wine is itGreco di Tufo Santa Lucia by Feudi di San Gregorio is a still white wine from Greco grapes in Campania. The style is dry and fresh, with a defined structure and natural acidity that supports its evolution over time. Vinification in steel tanks and ageing on the fine lees provide aromatic precision and good structure, maintaining a linear profile with a savoury finish.Where it comes fromThis wine is born in Irpinia, in the heart of the Campanian Apennines, from selected parcels among the most expressive vineyards of Feudi di San Gregorio. The Irpinia area contributes freshness and aromatic finesse, enhancing the varietal characteristics of the Greco grape.How it is madeThe Greco grapes arrive in the winery and are gently pressed. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks at controlled temperature to preserve varietal characteristics. Malolactic fermentation is not carried out, a choice that maintains acidity and tension. Ageing continues in steel on fine lees for 8–10 months, with weekly bâtonnage for greater consistency and aromatic stability, followed by a period in bottle to complete its development.Tasting notesIn the glass, it appears straw yellow with golden reflections. The nose reveals apple and grapefruit, with notes of medicinal herbs and a toasted hazelnut nuance linked to ageing on lees. The palate is dry, fresh and taut, with a savoury texture that lengthens the persistence and an orderly, consistent finish.Food pairingsIt pairs well with grilled white meats and vegetarian dishes based on vegetables and legumes. Its savouriness matches Mediterranean preparations with aromatic herbs and extra virgin olive oil, such as roasted vegetables or savoury pies. In Campanian cuisine, it goes well with Ischian-style rabbit and eggplant parmigiana, where the toasted note and acidic tension complement the dish.When to serveThis is a white wine to enjoy throughout the meal when seeking precision and freshness, suitable for lunches and dinners with defined flavours. Serve at 10–12 °C in a medium-sized glass. Let it breathe for a few minutes to bring out the citrus and fruit notes. Thanks to its acidity and salinity, the wine evolves in the cellar and develops more complexity without losing its balance.
