The 2011 Greco di Tufo is one of the more varietally expressive, nuanced whites among the Villa Matilde’s entry-level offerings. Rich yellow-fleshed fruit, smoke, incense and ash emerge from the glass. There is an intensity and power in the 2011 that is quite striking and that also distinguishes the Greco from some of the other entry-level wines in the estate’s range. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2015.
Villa Matilde excels with a wide range of wines. The house style favors textural richness and depth. At times, varietal expression can take a bit of a back seat, but the wines more than compensate for that with their extraordinary personalitites. In particular, I found a number of the reds to be simply dazzling this year. Many of these wines are also great values.
