Wine Review: This yellowish gold colored Greco opens with a honeyed pear and mild apricot bouquet. On the palate, this wine is full bodied with elevated acidity. It is bright and lively. The flavor profile a mineral influenced Bosc pear, honey, and tart green apple blend with notes of ginger and white pepper with a hint of lager beer. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity linger for a bit. This wine would pair well with grilled swordfish skewers. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: From the straw yellow color, this Greco di Tufo offers a rich bouquet of ripe fruits, from white peach to apricot, sweet almond that meld with exquisitely mineral and citrus notes. On the palate, the vigorous taste is rich, complex, and fresh at the same time, completing a wine of great personality. Pair with any seafood pasta dishes.
