The name Tempa di Zoè refers not only to a physical place; it is, above all, a declaration of intent. “Tempa” is the word for the rolling hills of Cilento that stretch down to the sea from north to south. Zoè is the Greek word for the essence of life, the universal principle common to the animal, vegetable and mineral worlds.
The vineyards, located in Torchiara, stretch over two hectares planted with Aglianico vines.
Diciotto is a Cilentan Aglianico from vines planted in 2003. Its name, which means “eighteen”, celebrates the eighteen years since the first harvest of Zero, the company’s first wine. The 1.4-hectare vineyard is at 150m above sea level, on the flysch typical of Cilento, rich in clay and limestone, which brings to life the unique and refined expression of this grape.
Aglianico from the Cilento coast has a fascinating and spicy bouquet with myrtle, pepper and balsamic notes. Soft on the palate with delicate tannins.
