Benito Ferrara
Terra d'Uva Greco di Tufo
Tufo, Avellino, Campania, Italy
Vivid straw in color, Ferrara’s 2017 Greco di Tufo Terra d'Uva is laced with suggestions of lemon zest, white peach and ripe apricot. Rich and dense, but very nicely delineated, with vibrant, harmonious acidity providing lift on the long, mineral finish, the 2017 has plenty of early appeal. $23.00 (Ian D'Agata, Vinous, November 2018)

Apricot, honeysuckle, minerals. Keeps you coming back for another sip. Still very expressive on day 2.

that’s really good. like yum burgundy but with an itty bitty scratch of tannin instead of butter. Like it a lot ... there’s 1000’s of grapes in Italy alone we all should be drinking - GO IN.

Jun 4th, 2020I became obsessed with Greco di Tufo while living in Napoli last summer. A bottle was almost a nightly occurrence for my work buddies and I while there. I was thrilled to find this bottle a couple of months ago at City Wine Merchant in Buffalo, NY. It isn’t my favorite bottle of Greco, but it is excellent on a warm evening.
