Tasting Note

This wine speaks to those who gravitate toward white wines that express themselves with precise lines and lifted aromas of tart citrus fruit, green papaya and crushed oyster shell. There is a pretty salty element to the Quintodecimo 2022 Greco di Tufo Giallo d'Arles that has whiffs of Riesling, or even a Carricante from Sicily's Etna. The Luigi Moio house style prizes volume and texture, and the wine delivers on those fronts with a hint of cinnamon creaminess that comes from partial oak aging on the fine lees. - Monica Larner, Robert Parker Wine Advocate 95/100

Product Notes

Quintodecimo Giallo d'Arles Greco di Tufo is an Italian white wine of exceptional character. Produced in Campania, it predominantly features the Greco grape. The wine's inviting, golden-yellow hue hints at its complex profile, boasting rich citrus and peach notes, underlain by subtle minerality and spice. This elegant concoction is enhanced by a sophisticated ageing process in French oak barrels, giving it a rounded creaminess and distinctive complexity. Full-bodied and gracefully balanced, its high acidity makes it refreshingly crisp. Quintodecimo Giallo d'Arles Greco di Tufo offers a delightful, lingering finish that can captivate even the most discerning oenophile.
