QUINTODECIMO: A MAGICAL PLACE, WHERE ART MEETS WINE The primary red variety in the Southern Italian region of Campania is Aglianico, best-known as the grape used for the region's ageable Taurasi reds; it is also used to make other bottlings, like those within the Irpinia DOC and the Campania IGT. Generally, you can expect Aglianicos to be lively, structured reds with berry and cherry fruit notes and an herbal overtone. This lineup features Quintodecimo's Fiano di Avellino Exultet 2022, a vibrant and zesty white wine with pink grapefruit, white pepper, pineapple and floral notes.

BIODIVERSITY OF WHITE-SKINNED INDIGENOUS GRAPES IN IRPINIA, AND LONGEVITY The Quintodecimo 2020 Irpinia Grande CuvĂ©e Luigi Moio, a blend of 40% Fiano, 40% Greco and 20% Falanghina, or the “three grace” of Campania whites. This new blend is the brainchild of brainiac professor Luigi Moio, who has dedicated his life to the pursuit of fine wine both through hands-on viticulture and academia. "I gave the wine a long 15-year drinking window, although I suspect it will hold for longer still." Reviewers’ Favorites 2022: Monica Larner | Robert Parker: The Wine Advocate
