Description
Greco di Tufo DOCG Riserva Vittorio 2008 Di Meo
Greco di Tufo DOCG Riserva Vittorio 2008 Di Meo is a Campanian white with great personality, made from 100% Greco and born from a long wait, precision, and territorial identity. Signed by Di Meo, it tells the most authentic story of Irpinia through a mature, deep, and refined version of the grape, designed for those seeking an Italian wine capable of uniting aromatic intensity, structure, and a pleasant taste tension.
Territory and wine style
The grapes come from Montefusco, in the province of Avellino, from a steep vineyard well exposed to the northeast, located at 750 meters above sea level. The altitude, the clay-limestone soil, and manual harvesting contribute to defining a rigorous, vertical style with great balance. The long aging in steel and subsequent refinement in the bottle enhance the wine's evolutionary capacity, maintaining its mineral imprint and the typical complexity of Greco di Tufo. It is a label that elegantly interprets the denomination, with a mature and distinct personality.
Tasting notes
In the glass, it presents a brilliant golden yellow, a sign of evolution and expressive richness. The bouquet offers notes of cedar, Granny Smith apple, and propolis, accompanied by mineral sensations of flint and slate, with a delicate hydrocarbon hint. On the palate, it is warm, enveloping, and well-balanced, with a full, structured sip supported by appropriate acidity and marked minerality. The finish is long, harmonious, and consistent with its imprint of an important white, capable of evolving over time without losing definition.
Recommended pairings
Greco di Tufo DOCG Riserva Vittorio 2008 Di Meo pairs wonderfully with structured seafood dishes, such as sushi, sashimi, and salmon and potato croquettes. Its substance and freshness also make it suitable for richer preparations, such as a pumpkin and Taleggio risotto, where it manages to support the sweetness of the pumpkin and the creaminess of the cheese. It is also interesting with delicate white meats, shellfish, baked fish, and contemporary gourmet cuisine.
