I have described this wine in the past as a blend of the "three graces", and this analogy comes to mind again. The Quintodecimo 2021 Irpinia Grande Cuvée Luigi Moio offers the playful nature of the first grape variety, the texture of the second and the vertical lift of the third. This is the total package from Campania, and it's a wonder that more winemakers aren't experimenting with Campania white wine blends. This limited production shows tropical tones, pie crust, custard, honey and fragrant white flowers. At first glance, the wine is dense and compact, but it needs more time in the bottle to develop and open up. This is a beauty.

About this wine
Quintodecimo's Grande Cuvée Luigi Moio represents the pinnacle of white winemaking in Campania, Italy's ancient wine region. This Bianco Irpinia DOC is a sophisticated blend of Fiano, Greco, and Falanghina, three indigenous varietals that define the terroir of southern Italy. The combination delivers a full-bodied white wine with remarkable complexity and elegance, showcasing the mineral-driven characteristics and tropical fruit notes characteristic of Campania's volcanic soils.
Quintodecimo has established itself as a benchmark producer through meticulous vineyard management and thoughtful winemaking that honors the region's winemaking heritage. The Grande Cuvée Luigi Moio exemplifies this commitment, balancing medium-plus intensity with refined acidity and a dry profile that makes it remarkably versatile at table. At 13.5% ABV, this wine commands attention without excessive alcohol, allowing its layered character to shine.
This is a natural companion to ambitious cuisine: lamb, beef, venison, and game birds all find their match here, while its textural weight and mineral core make it equally compelling alongside mushroom-based dishes and charcuterie. For collectors and connoisseurs seeking a serious Italian white with substance and provenance, this represents outstanding value.
