Feudi di San Gregorio is an institution in Campania – greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino and Taurasi have made the winery from Sorbo Serpico famous. However, the Campanians have also been exploring other terroirs in southern Italy for years: in Apulia, not far from the Ionian Sea, they cultivate Primitivo vineyards, whose grapes produce an uncomplicated, authentic red wine. No big prestige line, but solid craftsmanship from one of the most traditional Primitivo regions in Italy. The vinification follows a straightforward concept: the grapes are carefully selected and fermented in stainless steel at a controlled temperature. The wine matures for several months in steel, without contact with wood, in order to preserve the fruity clarity of the grape variety. The result is an accessible Primitivo without baroque opulence – feudi di San Gregorio focusses on drinking pleasure rather than extract power.

Bright ruby red in the glass. The bouquet reveals elegant notes of cherries and strawberries, enriched with a hint of sweet spices – cinnamon and clove are subtly hinted at. On the palate, the wine is harmonious, with good freshness and minerality, but above all soft and velvety. Fruity fullness carries through to the enveloping finish without becoming heavy. This is not a Primitivo that wants to impress with alcohol and concentration, but a reliable companion to grilled meat, braised meat or mature cheese – solid southern Italian wine culture from Campanian hands.
