Sannio Greco

The name and the origins of the Greco grape variety derive from the Aminee gemine vine, cited in ancient times by Columella, Virgil and Pliny. It is a grape variety that has found in the mineral-rich Sannite terroir the perfect balance to give rise to a wine of great prestige. A white grape growing in small winged clusters, it has a medium early budbreak and ripens in the second/third decade of October.
