Aglianico, brought to Southern Italy by the Greeks (the name derives from the ancient Hellenic), is the most important and representative variety of Southern Italy. Complex vine that requires great attention and skill for its processing. The harvest is carried out strictly by hand, the grapes placed in boxes and transported to the cellar, where they are selected during the destemming phase.
Tasting notes and pairings
Intense ruby red color with violet reflections. with hints of sour cherries and plums, wet earth, fern, humus, geranium, peonies, incense, sandalwood, juniper, and an intriguing mineral vein. Taste of good thickness, with warmth that leaves room for the tannic, exuberant and gritty expression, supported by acidity until the end of the sip. Ideal for savory first courses, red meats, cheeses. Perfect pairing: lentil and bacon soup, meatloaf stuffed with smoked cheese and speck, fillet.
