"The strength of the Greco grape allied to the firmness of the Irpinia subregion are tamed here by the graceful handling of the Benito Ferrara estate. The wine is aged for seven months on the lees. Pale straw in the glass, it exhibits a fine tomato leaf aroma, with ripe apricot and papaya fruit flavours at the core enhanced by white pepper and seaweed minerality. The attack is full of sucrosity yet it's bone–dry, full and mellow, with a tight, precise finish sustained by zesty acidity and an almost salty aftertaste."
