Grechetto | Grape variety
The white Grechetto grape variety originates mainly in the regions of Umbria, Lazio and Tuscany. It has gained a remarkable reputation in recent years, particularly through the high-quality white wines from Montefalco, especially the Colli Martani in Umbria. The unique terroirs of these regions give Grechetto wines a distinctive character and make them a sought-after choice for wine lovers all over the world.
Grechetto produces full-bodied white wines with an impressive nutty aroma that is often accompanied by subtle floral and fruity notes. These wines can also be used as part of cuvées to add complexity and structure. The use of Grechetto in famous DOC wines such as Colli Martani Grechetto, Colli Martani Grechetto di Todi, Montefalco Bianco, Orvieto Classico, Orvieto Superiore and many others further contributes to the fame and popularity of this grape variety. - Gerardo
