Tenuta San Francesco
The Pepella grape variety takes its name from the berries that are sometimes as small as peppercorns caused by flowering problems. It is a relatively recent grape, documented only in the 19th century, and according to genetic studies is a variety distinct from all others found in Campania. The cluster is medium-sized, pyramid-shaped and sparse. It has low fertility with limited production, susceptible to Botrytis but partially protected by the thick skin and scarcity of berries.
