It is a cru produced with grapes from the Giallo d 'Arles vineyard located in Tufo.

It is a white wine with a red structure, powerful and refined, characterized by a deep melted minerality with notes of apricot and quince jam and a full and fresh taste. Giallo d’Arles also has an extraordinary predisposition to bottle aging by earning, over the years, in elegance, complexity and harmony. The name given to the wine is a tribute to the color preferred by Van Gogh during the whole period spent in Arles: a yellow prelude to red.
