Winemakers for three generations, with this wine we want to present our interpretation of Greco di Tufo. Stirpe is a cru, produced from selected grapes from 2.5/HA located in the municipality of Montefusco. In this Terroir the microclimate, the right exposure, the perfect composition of the soil and the careful work done in the vineyard guarantee character and uniqueness to our wine. Stirpe is a one-of-a-kind product, the fruit of passion, love and tradition.
