A rich white, sleek and harmonious, in a medium-bodied frame. Shows a subtle, round fleshiness to the ripe yellow melon and apricot fruit, vanilla and crushed hazelnut flavors, but a racy streak of acidity lends fine definition, while accents of fresh thyme, verbena and stone add greater detail. Fresh, salty finish.

This wine sources its fruit from the same Nassano site that Feudi di San Gregorio uses in their Feudi Studi series. The Tenute Capaldo 2019 Greco di Tufo Goleto is a large-scale white wine with an important sense of volume and depth. Some 80% of the wine is aged in tonneaux and 20% in amphorae. Indeed, Greco seems to enjoy a much better oxygen exchange in amphorae compared to Fiano (which tends to oxidize). Showing considerable volume, texture and medium fruit weight, this wine reveals oak spice, classic baking spices, soft peach and poached pear. This is a 6,000-bottle production.
