Così descrive "Quarterly Review of Wines" il nostro vino

"The Arpino family produces Monte di Grazia rosso and bianco from a tiny two and a half hectares of vines high (between 400-500 meters) on the precipitous Amalfi coast. Both wines are unique in different ways. The red, vinified mostly from the otherwise almost extinct Tintore, is rich with dark fruits, complex, elegant, and structured for long life. The white, made from the very local varieties Biancatenera, Peppella, and Ginestra, all almost as endangered as Tintore, smells and tastes of dried apple and dried pear and – above all – volcanic minerals: basalty, ever-so-slightly-sulfury, slaty. All told, two intriguing wines, deserving of attention."
