Greco di Tufo DOCG (Linea Tradizione)
The Greco di Tufo is weighty in the glass, with delicate aromas of orange blossom, cedar and lime, up to more intense notes of exotic fruits and icing sugar. On the palate it is fresh, fruit-forward, and firmly structured. Pairs gorgeously with vegetable tempura, butter scallops, and fried mozzarella.
