Initially, the vineyards of Feudi di San Gregorio were located in the Sorbo Serpico area, where the winery is located to this day. But gradually they were joined by plots in Tufo, Santa Paolina and Taurasi, which lie on hills at an altitude of 350 to 700 meters above sea level. Currently, the area of vineyards has increased from 30 to 300 hectares. In addition to areas in Campania, the farm owns excellent vineyards in Apuglia and Basilicata.
Taurasi wine from Feudi di San Gregorio is considered one of the most powerful and at the same time elegant wines in Italy. Taurasi is made from the Aglianico grape variety. Locals call this variety "Greek vine" (Vitis Hellenica), as this variety was brought from Greece․
Founded in 1986, the Feudi di San Gregorio winery has become a symbol of the renaissance of wine culture in Southern Italy. Today, the winery has gained a great reputation around the world as one of the most dynamically developing companies in Italy, focusing on the quality of wines, wild-fermentation, and the use of innovative technologies.
