Overview

Feudi di San Gregorio was established in 1986 in Sorbo Serpico, a tiny village in Campania’s Irpinia region, near Mount Vesuvius, by the Capaldo and Ercolino families from Irpinia. This highly acclaimed winery Encourages us to rediscover the identity of Mediterranean flavors through indigenous grapes that reach their full potential with their modern winemaking approach. Feudi di San Gregorio’s Fiano di Avellino is grown between 650 - 1,650 ft above sea level in moderately deep, slight to moderately calcareous on the surface and calcareous at deeper level soil. It is a true expression of this native grape that pairs well with shellfish and grilled seafood.
