93 points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, November 2023
Made with a special selection of fruit from across five vineyard sites with different soil profiles, the Quintodecimo 2020 Irpinia Aglianico Terra d'Eclano is the most approachable of these reds with ripe primary fruit and softness. Fruit in 2020 shows abundant ripeness, texture and richness with baked blackberry, cherry liqueur, caramel, toasted spice and campfire ember. This wine is underlined by power and ripeness. Some 16,000 bottles were released.
Professor Luigi Moio's Quintodecimo is producing what I consider to be the best wines in Campania at the moment. Located in beautiful Mirabella Eclano in the mountainous area of Irpinia, this is a very special estate that is uncompromising when it comes to achieving quality (even in a challenging vintage like 2022).

OUR STORY
FOUNDERS AND BACKGROUND
Founders Marco Prete and Cristina Fragni have spent a lifetime in close contact with the top European winemakers and cellar masters, and have spent decades on their shared passion for learning, tasting, and even assisting in the production of fine wines.
After relocating to NYC in 2013, they found that many of their favorite vintages were not available in the US. Inspired by a lack of available inventory on the usual channels, they decided that it was essential to them personally and professionally to create a bespoke, world-class collection of fine wines available for US import.
The Wines of Kings collection of exquisite wines reflects the founders’ obsession with premium wines that are made authentically.
