Description
The Grande Cuvée Luigi Moio is born from the union of the three white grape varieties - Greco, Falanghina and Fiano - that are already produced in Quintodecimo in the mono-varietal version. In this wine, each of the parts united makes a contribution greater than their simple sum, creating the conditions for an amplification of the wine's aroma and taste and for its greater longevity.

| Harvest | Manual |
| Fermentation temperature | 18-20 °C |
| Wine making | After manual harvesting into small 15 kg crates, the grapes are gently pressed. Fermentation takes place 60% in new French oak barriques and 40% in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 18-20 °C. |
| Aging | At the end of fermentation, the wine matures for eight months on the lees, six of which after blending the three single-vineyard wines. After bottling, the bottles rest for a further two years in a horizontal position in the winery's vaults for time to complete the work, allowing the wine to reach its fullest expression. |
