Producer Note
One of the main protagonists in the renaissance of Southern Italian wines, Feudi di San
Gregorio has carved out a reputation for making truly world-class wines in less than 30
years. The company began in the mid 1980s with the aim of safeguarding local
traditions and unlocking the potential of key indigenous grapes such as Fiano, Greco,
Falanghina and Aglianico. In 2021, Feudi di San Gregorio was awarded the Equalitas
certification which officially recognises social, environmental and economic pillars of
sustainability, through biodiversity, carbon and water footprint and ecological
cultivation practices. A multi-award winning producer, Feudi di San Gregorio also
features in the 2021 Wine & Spirits Top 100 Wineries.
Vineyard
The beautiful Feudi di San Gregorio vineyards are spread out over lush and gentle hills
in Sorbo Serpico, about an hour from Naples and Mount Vesuvius. The soils are
uniquely volcanic, sandstone and marl. Each vineyard is closely monitored with a
meteorological station, and the technologies of the new state-of-the-art wine cellar
ensures that each vintage comes as close to perfection as possible. In accordance
with the sustainable Equalitas certification, the vineyards are cultivated using ecological
practices to maintain the equilibrium of the environment. Soil and fertiliser management
strategies are employed, pesticides are not used, biodiversity is positively encouraged
and weeding does not take place between the rows of vines.
Winemaking
The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness and then fermented in stainless steel
tanks at controlled temperatures of 16 to 18°C. The wine was then matured for five
months in stainless steel tanks on its lees, which imparted texture and complexity.
Tasting Note
The nose and palate are intense and persistent with notes of delicate white flowers and
stone fruits. A refreshing, well-balanced wine with a long, clean and zesty-lemon finish.
