A monumental sparkling wine with tension and territorial character. The aromatic profile alternates white fruits with sulfurous and yeast notes of extreme refinement.

A stylistic feat that celebrates the historical greatness of Cantine di Marzo.
Greco di Tufo 1930 Brut nature 2021, Cantine di Marzo
The "1930" Brut Nature 2021 from Cantine di Marzo is a tribute to the history and pioneering vision of the di Marzo family, who were the first to recognize the potential of Greco di Tufo for Classical Method sparkling wines. This wine is not just a bubble but a liquid expression of Irpinia's sharp sulfur and minerality. The 2021 vintage, with its marked temperature variations, provided vibrant acidity and exceptional fruit purity. On the nose, it is a concert of rare elegance: clear notes of medlar, citron, and chamomile flowers blend with deep hints of bread crust, bitter almond, and a mineral trail that recalls sulfur, chalk dust, and flint. On the palate, it is sumptuous for its verticality; the entry is direct, dominated by dense and savory body that stretches toward a dry, infinite finish with endless aromatic persistence, characterized by aristocratic citrus freshness.
