OUR TERRITORY

Irpinia, a historical region of the Campanian Apennines, is a unique vine growing and wine producing territory, where vineyards have always coexisted with fruit trees, woodland, olive trees and herbs: a rugged and yet gentle territory with a strong and genuine identity.

Irpinia is an ancient inland whose vineyards were even described by ancient authors such as Pliny, Columella and Strabo. The Irpinia region is very varied, with a succession of mountains, hills and plains with rivers and streams in between.

The territory’s orography causes a system of winds that gives the region good rainfall and creates a microclimate that sets it apart from the other Campania areas: vegetation is varied and thick; the short winters are extremely cold and snowy, while the summers are mild and long.

This is not Campania, it’s Irpinia!

Irpinia is a truly unique territory under many aspects: Mediterranean latitudes, mountain viticulture, fresh rainy climate, with wines that for their style and character are very different from classic “southern” stereotype.

Irpinia is the next big thing on the international winemaking scene.

Irpinia is a jigsaw puzzle to be pieced together piece after piece, hill after hill, cru after cru.

Irpinia is a journey full of surprises and FeudiStudi is its most up to date gps tracker.

THE FEUDISTUDI WINES

Campanian viticulture is the combination of many “short stories”, stories of populations who have preserved the most ancient traditions, piecing together a mosaic of communities, valleys, hills, memories and cultures that history has consolidated over time. Wine is not a mere product but is testament to life on a territory.

Every wine speaks of the hills from where it originated, it tells stories of the people who created it generation after generation. The FeudiStudi wines descend from our aspiration to share these stories, stories reflected in Pierpaolo Sirch’s uncompromising wine making and ageing choices, stories about the richness of our most expressive vineyards, selected every year among our 700 vineyards depending on the vintage.

Art Expressions

One of the cornerstones of Feudi di San Gregorio’s vision is the belief that a bottle of wine and a work of art share the same creative process.

The love and passion infused in the cultivation of the vines, the effort in the picking of the grapes and the patient waiting for the wine to age, endow every one of our bottles with a personality of its own, transforming it into an authentic artwork.

These are the same sentiments and emotions guiding artists in their creative process in making a sculpture, a photograph, a painting or an installation.

In the light of this approach, Feudi di San Gregorio establishes collaborations with affirmed artists and young talents, towards cultivating a fruitful and ongoing exchange of knowledge and creativity between the world of art and that of wine.
