Producer: Terre del Vescovo
Region: Campania, Italy
Varietal: Aglianico
Year: 2016
Winemaker Notes:
"Aglianico grown high in the sparsely populated mountain villages of Irpinia, east of Naples, produces red wines that rank among Italy’s most intense and austere. This example—a declassified Taurasi from Montemarano, one of the top crus for Aglianico in Campania—has been somewhat tamed through seven years of aging, first in large cask and then in bottle. Today the tannin is sleek and chalky, providing a firm backbone to the racy blackberry, sour plum, violet, and bitter cocoa suggestions. Rustic in the best sense, this biting red demands similarly characterful fare."
Alcohol: 13.5%
