Lucia Chardonnay is a blend of fruit from the Pisoni and Soberanes Vineyards. This wine is a wonderful representation of the Santa Lucia Highlands and these estate vineyards. The goal is to create a "world-class" appellation blend; barrels for this wine are hand selected, just as for the single-vineyard wines. - Bright and fresh, the lively Sauvignon Blanc is bursting with pineapple, passion fruit and other tropical flavors. Fermented in stainless steel tanks to preserve its fruity flavors, this wine is perfectly balanced and gorgeously crisp!
- Intense citrus notes perfume this bright, sunny off-dry Riesling. Yellow peach and pear flavors are rich and ripe on the palate, but balanced by a firm strike of lemon acidity. Finishes moderately long.
- Via del Campo perfectly expresses the fruity and mineral scents typical of Falanghina wine. It is a cru obtained exclusively with grapes from only one vineyard of Falanghina. It is characterized by a luminous golden color and fragrances of apple, pineapple, herbs and field flowers with refined minerals and salty notes. The delicate structure, releases menthol and toasted notes arised from the short stay during the partial fermentation in small oak barrels. Immediately likeable when young, this wine evolves in a more complex bouquet after some years in the bottle.
- Exultet is a sophisticated and elegant interpretation of Fiano di Avellino. It is a cru produced exclusively with the grapes of one Fiano vineyard. It is yellow and luminous with green reflections and fragrances of linden, acacia and thyme. It is well structured with flavors of exotic fruit, citrus and honey and a very soft mineral note. This particular elegance also derives from a partial fermentation in small oak barrels. It is a wine with great longevity which can also age for some decades thanks to its richness in precursors of aroma and the integrity of its freshness and taste. The name given to the wine derives from Exultet of Mirabella Eclano in which we can also find a tribute to bees. Exultet are liturgical parchments from the southern Italian middle ages. A kind of multimedial ante litteram product made up by parchment papers sewed together, where the texts of benedictio cerei were written accompanied by musical notations and miniatures put on the opposite side of the sheets.
- The Greco di Tufo grape is characterized by a content of coloring matter higher than the other white grapes of the Campania region. For this reason, at full maturation, this grape becomes golden with amber tones on the sun-exposed side. The must is reddish ochre. The wine, if not clarified, has an intense golden color. Giallo d’Arles is an extreme and rigorous interpretation of the Greco di Tufo wine. It is a cru produced with one vineyard of Greco grapes. The ancient yellow-golden color, typical of the denomination, is more intense also thanks to the partial fermentation in new oak barrels and thanks to the complete absence of any clarification treatments. It is a white wine with the structure of a red wine, powerful and refined, characterized by a deep minerality blended with flavors of apricot and quince marmalade and by a full and fresh taste. Giallo d’Arles has also an extraordinary predisposition to maturation in bottle, obtaining year-by-year elegance, complexity and harmony. The name given to the wine is a tribute to Van Gogh’s favorite color during his stay in Arles: a yellow which is a prelude of red.

- The nose of this wine makes one think of cool tropical breezes with gentle aromatics of passion fruit and Guava. Further investigation reveals the essence of subtle oak, cinnamon and green apples. The mouth texture is “oh so creamy” and almost soft, but has a definite crispness to its edges. We roll this Chardonnay around our palates and hear comments of, “nectarine, lemon, and apricot”. This is a beautifully balanced wine with just the right core of acidity and flavor. Its profile is broad and round with a finish of elegant oak. There’s a romantic quality to the wine with its sexy, brilliant flavors and soft, creamy texture.
- The aromatics and palate of this wine really showcase what vine age can do to a wine. Asian pear, white flowers and nectarine. The palate is vibrant and crisp with a touch of minerals on the finish. A perfect food wine.
- Some very appealing apple, Asian pear, mint, smoke and toast notes mark the nose of this even, medium-weight wine. It has fine fruit-to-acid balance and offers apple-peach flavors with a mild but evident butterscotch element. The tangy oak that’s present from the start shows most prominently on the spicy finish.
- This Sauvignon Blanc has a focused aromatic expression on the riper side of Sauvignon Blanc with grapefruit and guava, while also bringing forth an aromatic return reminiscent of fresh mountain honey. Bright in texture, it combines the fresh, underlying acidity to give length while the aromatic and mineral texture both add rhythm and depth.
