Description

The Grande Cuvée Luigi Moio is a combination of the three white grape varieties – Greco, Falanghina and Fiano – which are produced at Quintodecimo in their mono-varietal version. In this wine each of the united parts gives a higher contribute to their simple sum, creating the conditions for an olfactory and gustative amplification of the wine and for a better longevity.

A great wine is the perfect blend between poetry and science, between the imponderable and the measurable. It is essentially beautiful, a work of art. It is a sort of raw material’s transfiguration that springs from must as a statue springs from stone. The man who creates it is the one who carves into this stone, already having the end result in his mind. To do this, obviously a man must have a sound scientific background. He must have an understanding of several things; knowledge of the soil, the physiology of the grape, the biochemical processes underlying the transformation of grapes into wine, and the mechanisms of sensory perception. These represent the essence of my way of making wine, this magical invention of man, which has affected my entire life. It was because of these convictions that my wife Laura and I founded Quintodecimo in 2001. (Luigi Moio) Read more
