This characterful Greco di Tufo comes from high-altitude plots around Lapio, where Clelia Romano works meticulously and skilfully on volcanic-calcareous soils. Alèxandros is matured in stainless steel tanks in order to bring the varietal typicity and mineral character of the terroir unadulterated into the glass. Light straw yellow in colour with a greenish tinge. The nose shows ripe yellow fruit – williams pear, lemon zest, a hint of apricot – accompanied by floral notes and delicate smoke. Taut on the palate, with lively acidity, juicy fruit and a fine, chalky finish. The typical salinity of Greco is elegantly emphasised here. A purist, serious white wine with depth of origin and a clear signature – typical Colli di Lapio, typical Lapio. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2023 Greco di Tufo is pure seduction in the glass, presenting a rich yet perfumed blend of dried apricots, honeyed florals and candied citrus that rises from the glass. The palate is soothingly round, mixing lime with nectarine and sweet spice over a wave of zesty acidity. This Greco di Tufo leaves a lip-smacking sensation and a salivating palate, tapering off long and spicy." Vinous
