White Grapes

White grapes used for Greco, Fiano and Falanghina come from sites with high vocation to the production of each variety (Santa Paolina per il Greco, Capriglia per il Fiano e San Leucio per la Falanghina).

We don't buy grapes but local producers grows them up for us under specific long term contracts, in order to guarantee the maximum grape quality. We follow directly not only the harvest but also the cultivation.
