Spring has sprung and there are new, tender leaves on the vines. My people and I were off to the south this week, and the lush, volcanic hills, about an hour from Naples and Mount Vesuvius.
Feudi di San Gregorio is a noted winery that produces wine from the ancient indigenous grape varieties of the region.
Some was spilled, as is the case at every tasting. Enough for a small dog swilled from the glass and was very much appreciated.
My pronouncement?
A wine of golden color, pear and citrus on the nose…my nose. Fresh and dry on the tongue, with a crisp mineral finish. Perfect for the coming hot weather.
