Benito Ferrara, Greco di Tufo 'Vigna Cicogna', 2024
Perhaps the most elegant Greco di Tufo made in Italy. The Ferrara family has grown grapes in Irpinia since the 1880s; Benito built the modern winery in the 1950s. Vigna Cicogna is their flagship single-vineyard bottling from volcanic soils rich in sulfur—the village of Tufo sits atop ancient sulfur mines. Greco ripens late at high altitude (450-600m), yielding wines of remarkable mineral complexity. This is Campania's answer to great white Burgundy: structured, textured, built to age. Outstanding with seafood or aged hard cheeses.
