Greco di Tufo Vigna Cicogna
This wine is produced with Greco grapes from vineyards located in a limited area of Irpinia, in the hamlet called Frazione San Paolo. The area is in a pedoclimatic condition, and the soil is rich in sulfur, volcanic soil, tuff and other minerals. Vigna Cicogna (Stork Vineyard) dates to 1884, when herons took refuge from the flooding Sabato river on this plot. The locals thought this big bird was a stork, not herons, but the name remained and became the vineyard’s moniker. A unique wine with a fresh, clean, persistent finish.
Integrated certified wine by "SQNPI" (Italian Quality System of Integrated Production).
