Description
What kind of wine is it
Fiano di Avellino Exultet by Quintodecimo is a still white wine made from Fiano grapes, an authentic expression of the Campania region. It stands out for its fresh profile, characterised by a dense and continuous structure. The bouquet offers clear varietal aromas with notes of linden, acacia and thyme. On the palate, the taste is enveloping, releasing aromas of exotic fruit and candied citrus that rest in balance on a subtle mineral texture. A glass that enhances the noble vocation of the grape variety, delivering a sip of great consistency and persistence.
Where does it come from
The wine originates from Lapio, in the province of Avellino, in an area of Campania with a long-standing tradition. The vineyards, cultivated using the Guyot training system, are located at an altitude of 570 metres. The south-west exposure ensures even ripening and a well-defined fruit expression. The roots delve into deep clay-limestone soils, a geological feature that gives a compact flavour profile and imparts that distinctive mineral component which pleasantly punctuates the drinking experience.
How is it produced
Production begins with a manual harvest carried out between the end of September and the beginning of October. Upon arrival at the winery, the bunches are carefully selected on sorting tables before undergoing gentle pressing and static decantation. The temperature-controlled fermentation takes place in steel vats and French oak barrels. The process concludes with a ten-month maturation in the same containers, a technical choice essential for integrating aromatic precision and maintaining a clean, elegant style.
History and Curiosities
Founded in 2001 in Campania, the winery Quintodecimo embodies the great passion of renowned oenologist Luigi Moio. The Exultet Fiano di Avellino DOCG, offered in the prestigious Magnum format from the 2024 vintage, draws its profound elegance from the clay-limestone soils of Lapio, situated at 570 metres above sea level. After a rigorous manual harvest, the carefully selected grapes undergo expert fermentation in barrique and steel. A patient maturation of ten months finally bestows this white wine with fascinating complexity and a natural aptitude for longevity.
