Only in the best years does Sabino Loffredo vinify a tiny portion of his best Fiano grapes from the cru vineyard Toppole Montefredane as a single-vineyard white wine.

Slender and racy in the glass, it reveals an overwhelming freshness, notes of grapefruit and a subtle saltiness that is otherwise only found in the neighbouring Quintodecimo or in the whites from Etna.
