Product Notes

This elegant wine is made from Grechetto grapes, getting its distinct flavour profile from the clay and limestone hills of the Colli Martani area. Renowned for its crisp, fragrant bouquet of citrus fruits and fresh herbs, Caprai's Grecante is generously bodied with well-balanced acidity. The palate sings with notes of ripe pear, accented by hints of saltiness, culminating in a lingering finish. Ideal for pairing with seafood or white meats, it is perfect to be savoured at leisure on a quiet evening.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Intense perfumes of exotic fruit and yellow peach, floral notes of fresia and hawthorn Taste: Pleasing chalkiness on the finish. Full, fresh, with a long persistence .
