Benito Ferrara Greco di Tufo Vigna Cicogna 2018

From the historic Benito Ferrara winery in Tufo, Campania, the Greco di Tufo Vigna Cicogna 2018 is a benchmark white from a 1.5-hectare cru in San Paolo. Crafted from 100% Greco, sourced from 15–60-year-old vines on calcareous-clay soils with sulfur veins at 500 meters, it’s hand-harvested and fermented in stainless steel. Aged 7 months on lees in steel, it offers a pale straw hue with vibrant complexity.
