Its profile is distinguished by a full-bodied style, in which \u003cstrong\u003esilky tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e balance a remarkable concentration with a pleasant freshness. Ageing in \u003cstrong\u003enew oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e defines a \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex\u003c\/strong\u003e and persistent \u003cstrong\u003earomatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e, ideal for pairing with red meats and matured cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from Mirabella Eclano, in the province of Avellino, from a single south-facing vineyard that ensures consistent and optimal ripening. The vines grow at over four hundred and fifty metres above sea level on deep \u003cstrong\u003evolcanic soil\u003c\/strong\u003e, mainly composed of ash and pumice. This well-drained, lime-free land guarantees high \u003cstrong\u003eoxygen availability\u003c\/strong\u003e to the roots, giving the wine an unmistakable \u003cstrong\u003emineral freshness\u003c\/strong\u003e that supports its rigorous and harmonious structure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe production process begins with a rigorous manual selection of the bunches, followed by \u003cstrong\u003etemperature-controlled fermentation\u003c\/strong\u003e for about three weeks. This prolonged contact with the skins maximises the extraction of polyphenols, preparing the wine for long ageing in \u003cstrong\u003eoak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e. Resting in wood enriches the structure and releases \u003cstrong\u003enotes of cherry and plum\u003c\/strong\u003e, complemented by fresh \u003cstrong\u003ehints of eucalyptus and incense\u003c\/strong\u003e, which give this red an olfactory charm of great intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and curious facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFounded in 2001 by Luigi Moio in Mirabella Eclano, the Quintodecimo winery expresses Campanian excellence through the \u003cstrong\u003eVigna Grande Cerzito\u003c\/strong\u003e.
