Review Date: 09/2025

The 2024 Greco di Tufo Vigna Cicogna is decidedly savory with musky apricots, lemon zest and dried flowers. A pretty inner sweetness on the entry leads to contrasting salty mineral tones, citrus and ultra-ripe orchard fruits. Zesty acidity punctuates the experience beautifully as tension reverberates through the long finale. (EG)

Notes

The 2024 "Vigna Cicogna" is a flagship expression of Greco di Tufo, often regarded as one of Italy's most prestigious and age-worthy white wines. Sourced from a high-altitude (500m) single vineyard in Santa Paolina characterized by unique sulfur-rich volcanic soils, this wine is fermented and aged for seven months in stainless steel on its fine lees. The nose is powerful and complex, offering intense aromas of ripe peach, Bartlett pear, and grapefruit layered with scents of white flowers, flint, and a touch of ginger. On the palate, it is full-bodied and structured, balancing a rich, creamy texture with striking acidity and a savory, ashen minerality. The finish is long and exceptionally tonic, marked by a classic hint of bitter almond and a persistent citrus lift. A "white wine for red wine drinkers," it possesses the tension and depth to evolve beautifully over the next several years.
