Feudi di San Gregorio

A white wine with history and a mineral signature. Lacryma Christi Bianco comes from old vines on the fertile ash soils around Mount Vesuvius. Pale straw yellow in the glass with greenish reflections. The nose reveals white flowers, yellow apple, a hint of lemon and delicate herbal flavours. Fresh, clear and delicately salty on the palate, with lively acidity and a finely tart, cool mineral finish. The single-varietal Coda di Volpe was matured in stainless steel tanks to preserve its freshness and varietal character. A true southern Italian with a cool head and volcanic character – ideal with seafood, pasta alle vongole or fried antipasti. SUPERIORE.DE

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.

Rubrato is the youthful expression of Aglianico – powerful but not overloaded, typical and yet accessible. The grapes come from the higher parcels of Irpinia with volcanic soils. Maturation in stainless steel tanks preserves freshness and varietal purity. Rich ruby red colour in the glass. The aroma opens with ripe cherries, dark wild berries, some violets and a hint of graphite. The wine is lively on the palate, with juicy fruit, fine acidity and moderate tannins – clearly structured, but with plenty of drinkability. Rubrato has elegance and balance in every vintage, it is a stylish introduction to the world of Aglianico that goes perfectly with pasta with sugo, grilled meat or mature cheese. SUPERIORE.DE

A classic from the foot of Mount Vesuvius – deeply rooted in myth and minerality. The Lacryma Christi Rosso is ruby red in the glass with light violet reflections. Black cherry, plum, violet and a hint of smoke on the nose – typical of the volcanic soils of Vesuvius. Juicy on the palate, with lively fruit, present acidity and fine-grained tannins. The ageing in stainless steel tanks preserves the primary aromas of the Piedirosso and emphasises its authentic origin. A youthful, characterful wine with a regional soul: uncomplicated, but never trivial. Perfect with grilled meat, pasta al ragù or pizza from the wood-fired oven. SUPERIORE.DE

Falanghina is one of the great white wine classics of southern Italy – and Feudi di San Gregorio interprets it in its purest form. The grapes come from the gentle hills of the Sannio, a high altitude area with calcareous soils and striking day-night differences. Brilliant straw yellow in the glass with greenish reflections. Aromas of white peach, apple blossom, lime and a hint of broom. Fresh, fruity and delicately flavoured on the palate, the minerality remains subtly in the background. A confident, clear white wine from a traditional grape variety that does not want to be fashionable, but speaks its origins. Ideal with seafood, pasta with vegetables or simply as an aperitif on a warm evening. SUPERIORE.DE

Greco di Tufo is one of the most distinctive white wines in southern Italy – mineral, full of character and with a clear profile of origin. The volcanic soils around Tufo in the heart of Irpinia give the wine its typical tension. The 2024 vintage is balanced and aromatically precise: a light straw yellow colour with golden reflections in the glass. On the nose, white mandarin, yellow apple, quince and a hint of smokiness – typical of the grape variety. Taut and juicy on the palate, with vibrant acidity, a chalky texture and a salty finish. An expressive, terroir-influenced white wine with serious depth, which is excellent on its own or with grilled fish, shellfish or pasta with mussels. SUPERIORE.DE

Fiano is one of the noblest white wine varieties in southern Italy, and Feudi di San Gregorio is one of its most important interpreters. Bright straw yellow with greenish reflections. The fragrance is finely interwoven – white flowers, hazelnut, delicate honey notes and citrus fruit form an elegant spectrum of flavours. Structured and lively on the palate, with fine minerality, juicy fruit and a subtle creaminess. The volcanic soils of the Avellino hills are reflected in the clear texture and the long, slightly almondy final. An expressive Fiano that combines origin and grape variety in a stylish balance. A versatile food companion – from antipasti to seafood cuisine. SUPERIORE.DE

A rare representative of an almost forgotten grape variety that is attracting attention again today: Piedirosso – the "red foot" – is an ancient clone from Campania that is experiencing a renaissance thanks to its finesse and flavour. Feudi di San Gregorio interprets it with precision and respect for tradition. A bright ruby red colour with a violet hue in the glass. The bouquet combines dark cherry, blackberry and dried herbs with fine smoke and a hint of leather. Soft and supple on the palate, with ripe fruit, subtle tannins and an animating, almost salty freshness. The ageing in stainless steel preserves the typicality and elegance of the grape variety. A characterful, yet pleasantly accessible red wine with a regional profile – and a successful plea for the authentic south of Italy. SUPERIORE.DE

Serrocielo is the elegant cru version of Falanghina – vinified from selected parcels around Benevento, whose altitude and limestone-clay soils give the grape variety expression and finesse. Pale straw yellow in colour with silvery reflections. Precise aromas of lime zest, white peach, herbs and a hint of wet chalk on the nose. Straightforward and delicately flavoured on the palate, with mineral tension, well-integrated acidity and a delicate melting finish. Maturation in stainless steel tanks preserves the purity, while the selective hand-picking ensures depth. A Falanghina full of character with cool elegance – interpreted in a modern way without denying its southern Italian soul. SUPERIORE.DE

One of the most characterful white wines in southern Italy comes from the high vineyards around Tufo – the Riserva Cutizzi version of Greco di Tufo is particularly elegant and brooding. The mineral soils of volcanic origin, the cool nights at 500 to 600 metres above sea level and the selective harvest characterise the distinctive profile of this exceptional white wine. Light golden yellow in the glass with silvery reflections. The bouquet reveals a dense, yet focussed aroma: ripe yellow citrus fruit, nectarine, fennel green and a hint of wet chalk. Clear and structured on the palate, with a savoury freshness and creamy texture that comes from ageing on the fine lees. The vintage has a particularly lively acidity structure, which gives the wine length, precision and energy. A fine almond note and a delicate, almost sparse mineral grip on the finish.

After a year of bottle ageing in the cellar, Feudi's famous Fiano "Pietracalda" is labelled Riserva. A particularly high-quality Fiano di Avellino from Campania with white flowers, young peach and crushed stone on the nose. On the palate, its fruity character, aromatic herbal notes and clean structure and minerality are enormously stimulating. SUPERIORE.DE

Since the 2022 vintage, Campanaro has proudly carried the designation Fiano di Avellino Riserva DOCG – a step that takes the years of work on this wine to a new dimension. What began as Irpinia Bianco DOC with a Fiano-Greco cuvée is now a single-varietal Fiano from the best vineyards in the DOCG zone. Feudi di San Gregorio has thus made a clear decision: The Campanaro should show the potential of a single, great Campanian grape variety, not the harmony of two grapes. Vinification takes place in tonneau, where the must ferments at a controlled temperature and then matures for six months on the fine lees. This time in small wooden barrels gives the wine the texture and complexity that distinguishes it from simpler Fiano versions. The fine lees are stirred regularly to develop a creamy fullness without masking the typical freshness of Fiano. After bottling, the Campanaro is left to mature in the bottle for a few months before being released onto the market – patience as part of the Riserva philosophy.

Taurasi, undisputedly the great red of the south, rightly referred to as the "Barolo of the south", shows all its power and nobility in Feudi di San Gregorio's interpretation. The pure Aglianico comes from vineyards at altitudes of up to 700 metres, on volcanic soils with basalt, clay and tuff. The result is a brooding, long-lasting red wine with character of origin and high standards. Dark ruby red in the glass with a purple centre. The bouquet is intense and clearly structured: black cherry, cassis, blackberry, tobacco, roasted coffee, liquorice, tar and a hint of balsamic herbs. The ageing in large wooden barrels and barriques ensures balance and a fine, polished tannin structure. Dense yet cool on the palate, with grippy tannins, deep fruit and mineral freshness. The vintage also brings clarity, precise contours and an elegant length.

Feudi di San Gregorio's DUBL project was born in 2004 from an awareness of the great richness of the autochthonous vines of the Irpinia region and the desire to open up new horizons for them: as a Metodo Classico Spumante or by means of the famous Méthode Champenoise. An advisor was quickly found for this - none other than Anselme Selosse, who is known for his champagnes and his feeling for the particularities of the vines and vineyards.

Feudi's Riserva Piano di Montevergine is only vinified in outstanding years. The wine has a very impressive concentration and great richness in every vintage. Dark and brooding on first impression, it slowly awakens in the glass with a captivating blend of menthol, mint and exotic spices that evolves with a lively note of cinnamon-dusted redcurrant. This velvety-smooth and elegant wine appears heavy at first, but is quickly enlivened by a core of vibrant acidity and zesty citrus notes that embellish the tart black fruits. The tannins on the finish are sweet and chalky, while notes of wild red plum and blood orange keep the tasterer coming back for more. SUPERIORE.DE

Serpico is the flagship of Feudi di San Gregorio – a large, monumental Aglianico from vines over 150 years old from the legendary single vineyard "Dal Re" in Sorbo Serpico. The vineyard is located on mineral soils of volcanic origin and is cultivated with painstaking manual labour. 2016 was a moderate year, with a cool spring, a perfect ripening phase in late summer and a late, selective harvest in October – ideal conditions for a wine with depth and balance.
