The fourth generation of the Ferrara family, Gabriella Ferrara and husband Sergioare are now at the helm. They have 12.5 hectares under vine at 450-600 meters above sea level in calcareous clay soil of volcanic origin, with chunks of yellow sulfur marking the surface of the yellow-tinged soils. 100% Greco from the district of San Paolo. Vines range from 5 to 60 years old. Eastern exposure. 500 meters above sea level. Soft pressing of the fruit is followed by fermentation and maturation in stainless steel for 7 months before. The 2022 Greco di Tufo Terra d’Uva opens in the glass with a bouquet that blends fresh mint with kiwi and candied lime. It’s soft and round with cooling acidity and crisp orchard fruits that find a lovely contrast through an air of sweet inner florals. This finishes dry yet fresh, leaving a mineral tinge and a pleasantly bitter sensation that calls the taster back to the glass.
