Straw-yellow with golden glints, opening on the green plum and Mast'Antuono pear that Feudi di San Gregorio names as the Cutizzi signature, with lemon and grapefruit close behind. Vivino's 7610 raters reach for pear, mineral and citrus most often, alongside a balsamic mint lift the producer calls mentuccia. A faint sulphur-mineral smokiness traces back to the Santa Paolina vineyard's sulphur-mine subsoil.

- Taste profile
Dry and firmly acidic, with the spicy minerality Feudi attributes to Irpinia's volcanic, iron and potassium-rich soils. Twelve months on the lees with repeated batonnage round the mid-palate and add a creamy, faintly yeasty texture that Vivino drinkers pick up as honey and stone. At about 13% the weight stays medium, so citrus and saline drive rather than fat.
Long and saline, closing on wet stone, crushed citrus pith and a cool minty echo rather than oak. Wine Enthusiast scores recent Cutizzi 90 to 92 points and singles out that mineral, lime-pith cut.
A serious single-vineyard Greco di Tufo, made as a Riserva since the 2022 vintage and built to age, with the producer citing ten to twenty-year-old bottles still drinking well. Vivino sits it at 3.8 from 7610 ratings, with the 2021 and 2022 hitting 4.0 and the latter ranked among the top 3% of all wines; drinkers consistently praise its minerality, freshness and seafood versatility, and rarely fault it. One of the strongest value Greco di Tufo Riserva bottles in the UK at around 15 to 20 pounds.

The 2024 is the latest release of Feudi di San Gregorio's Cutizzi and is still building a Vivino sample, so the read is early. Expect the house style: 12 months on the lees with batonnage giving a fuller, mineral-driven Greco from the Cutizzi cru that will reward a year or two in bottle before its citrus and balsamic-mint notes settle.

Vivino drinkers rate the 2023 Cutizzi 3.9 from 155 ratings and flag it as a top year for this wine. Irpinia's high-altitude Santa Paolina site, with its frequent rainfall and cool nights, kept acidity firm, so this Riserva has the structure to hold and gain nutty, honeyed nuance over the next several years.

Perfect Pairings
Dishes that complement this wine
Greco acidity and Campanian salinity: dishes that fit Cutizzi
The producer's first pairing is raw seafood; the wine's saline minerality and firm acidity also carry mussels, squid ink risotto and mozzarella di bufala.
Campanian raw and steamed shellfish
The Cutizzi's saline, sulphur-mineral edge from the Santa Paolina vineyard mirrors the brine of shellfish, while its firm Greco acidity keeps each mouthful fresh. This is the producer's own first pairing suggestion, raw seafood and crudi di mare.
Try with: Impepata di cozze · Cozze arraganate · Fregula ai frutti di mare · More pairings →
Squid ink and seafood risotto
Twelve months on the lees give the Cutizzi enough creamy texture to sit beside a rich seafood risotto, while its broad acidity cuts the starch and butter. The 13% weight matches the dish without overpowering the squid.
Try with: Squid ink risotto · Fregula ai frutti di mare · More pairings →
Mozzarella di bufala and Caprese
Feudi pairs Cutizzi with mozzarella di bufala from its own Campania, and the logic holds: the wine's acidity slices through the cheese's milky fat, while its citrus and herb notes lift fresh tomato and basil.
Try with: Insalata Caprese · More pairings →
Baked and stewed white fish
The wine's balsamic mentuccia and stone-fruit aromatics bridge to herb-baked white fish such as the sea bass all'acqua pazza and baked pezzogna the producer recommends. Its minerality echoes the Tyrrhenian salinity of Campanian fish cookery.
Try with: Pesce spada alla Siciliana · Cozze arraganate · More pairings →
Lighter Campanian antipasti and fritto
As a fresh, medium-bodied aperitivo white the Cutizzi handles fried and vegetable-led antipasti, its acidity scrubbing the palate between bites. Drinkers on Vivino flag appetizers and vegetarian plates as natural matches.
Try with: Insalata Caprese · Fregula ai frutti di mare · More pairings →
Avoid heavy red meat and chilli heat
This is a high-acid, medium-bodied white with no tannin and no oak weight, so it is lost against braised red meat, heavily spiced curries or chilli-driven dishes. Reach for a Campanian Aglianico del Vulture or Taurasi with those instead.
Skip with: vindaloo · brasato al Barolo · spicy Sichuan beef · Pairing guide →
Cellaring Cutizzi: a Greco that ages
Unusually for the grape, Feudi di San Gregorio reports 10 to 20-year-old Cutizzi still drinking well and gaining nutty, honeyed nuance, making the Riserva a white worth laying down.
Peak around 2029. Best in the years above; holds without falling over either side.
Riserva from 2022 with 12 months on the lees and producer-cited 10 to 20-year longevity, capped below classic reds as an unoaked white.
£14.60 is the lowest tracked offer for the current vintage and we have no signal of further discounting.

Common Questions
Yes. From the 2022 vintage Feudi di San Gregorio bottles Cutizzi as Greco di Tufo DOCG Riserva. It spends 12 months in stainless steel on its lees with repeated batonnage, then 3 months in bottle, which is what earns the Riserva label.
It is a dry, mineral white with green plum, pear, lemon and grapefruit, a balsamic mint note and a saline, stony finish. Vivino's 7610 raters most often cite pear, mineral and citrus, and the firm acidity keeps it fresh.
Seafood above all. The producer recommends raw shellfish, mozzarella di bufala and herb-baked sea bass, and the wine's salinity and acidity also suit squid ink risotto, mussels and Caprese. Avoid red meat and chilli-heavy dishes.
The Cutizzi vineyard sits in Santa Paolina, one of the nine communes of the Greco di Tufo DOCG in Irpinia, Campania. Its volcanic, sulphur-rich soils, near the largest sulphur mine in southern Italy, give the wine its pronounced minerality.
Longer than most Greco. Feudi di San Gregorio notes that 10 to 20-year-old bottles still drink well and gain nutty, honeyed nuance. Recent vintages are best from release to around eight years on, with the 2023 holding comfortably to the early 2030s.
Recent vintages sell from roughly 15 to 35 pounds across UK retailers, with most listings near 20 pounds. That makes this single-vineyard DOCG Riserva strong value for the tier.
