Overview

Serpico is certainly one of the most emblematic wines made by Feudi di San Gregorio because there is a long winemaking history behind the vines. More than 150 years old, they have allowed Feudi today to replant new Aglianico vineyards from pre-phylloxera clones that give life to a truly unique wine. The traditional pergola in the historic “Dal Re” vineyard (meaning Vineyard of the King) is three meters high and has deep soil originally from volcanic ash. The grapes are transformed as gently as possible to convey the intensity of fruit and enrich it with elegance and longevity.

Aging

18 months in medium-toasted new French Oak barrels followed by a minimum of 8 months in bottle prior to release.

Fermentation

Alcoholic fermentation takes place in stainless steel 75˚F for 10 days.
