Grechetto

Montefalco, Umbria, Italy

This quaint little 469 acre estate has been called home by the Antonelli Family since 1881. They have been growing and producing wine here ever since and today they focus on cultivating native varietals: Grechetto and Trebbiano Spoletino for the whites, while the red varietals are mainly Sangiovese and Sagrantino. The property is surrounded by wooded areas which are ideal for both the vines and the olive groves grown on the property. In 2009 they made the conversion to organic farming which now takes place for all of their products. This fruity and floral white is made from 100% Grechetto which is grown in mostly limestone soils and then aged in stainless steel tanks. Notes of citrus, peach and white flowers makes it an ideal pairing for fish based dishes and meat pies.
