Greco di Tufo "Narciso" DOCG - PonteRotto Winery

Greco di Tufo " Narciso " DOCG wine is our version of the noblest of the native whites of Irpinia. The thousand-year-old origins of the vine date back to the time of the second Greek colonization, apparently thanks to the importation of vine seeds by the Thessalians. In his famous Naturalis Historia Pliny the Elder cites: "Indeed, Greek wine was so prized that at banquets it was poured only once" to confirm the value of the fruits of the "vine with twin bunches". Today our Greco di Tufo is a glass with an unmistakable dry and mineral taste, which enjoys the appreciation of the international public and the finest connoisseurs throughout Italy.
