vintage 2008

Greco di Tufo Vittorio is produced with grapes from a steep and sunny vineyard planted in 1998 in Montefusco, at 750 m asl. Manual harvest in slight over-ripening, maceration on the skins, fermentation at a controlled temperature and 14 years of aging (12 in stainless steel tanks and 2 in bottles). The color is a wonderful golden yellow, with citrus and mineral notes on the nose and a full-bodied structure in the mouth. This wine bears the name of Erminia's father, Generoso and Roberto Di Meo and the latter's son.
