Greco di Tufo Riserva 'Miniere' Cantine dell'Angelo 2024

The Greco di Tufo Riserva “Miniere” from Cantine dell'Angelo is a Campanian white that, starting from its name, aims to reveal its origins. Indeed, the terroir where the Greco grapes grow is rich in minerals, elements that are absorbed by the roots of the vines and are first transmitted to the bunches and then, thanks to a processing method aimed at enhancing the varietal, to the final product. A decidedly authentic bottle, telling us about one of the most important denominations in the entire region. In the kitchen, it pairs well with fish-based recipes or fresh cheeses.

This “Miniere” Riserva Greco di Tufo from Cantine dell’Angelo originates from vineyards located near Campanaro, right above ancient sulfur mines that give the terroir a particular mineral note. In the vineyard, every operation is carried out with a focus on low environmental impact, respecting the surrounding nature and the health of the soils. The grapes are gently pressed, and the fermentation of the must begins spontaneously, thanks to the presence of indigenous yeasts, in stainless steel containers, at low temperature. The wine remains to stabilize for several months in steel, and at the end of this brief aging, it is bottled.

The Greco di Tufo Riserva “Miniere” from Cantine dell'Angelo presents itself visually with a golden color. The nose reveals an interesting olfactory progression, where evident mineral notes blend with fruity scents and nuances of sulfur. On the palate, it is light-bodied, characterized by a dry sip that shows good taste freshness along with a pronounced mineral soul. A very territorial label, telling the story of the Campanaro area, where sulfur mines flourished in the past, demonstrating the winery's production philosophy, eager to present bottles that reveal their genesis without veils.
