The estate's classic-level Greco di Tufo DOCG, produced from Benito Ferrara's vineyards in Tufo outside the single Vigna Cicogna parcel. Fermented and aged for several months in stainless steel to preserve freshness, it shows the variety's signature citrus zest, white flowers and stone fruit aromas, framed by the volcanic tuff and sulfur-rich soils of Irpinia. It offers mineral tension similar to Vigna Cicogna in a lighter, more immediate style, finishing with the grape's characteristic bitter almond note.
The everyday face of one of Irpinia's great white wine estates - proof that Benito Ferrara's mineral intensity isn't reserved for the cru bottling alone.
