Tasting Notes

This exceptional Aglianico del Vulture DOC showcases the authentic character of Basilicata. Its 14.5% alcohol content underpins a rich, muscular structure. Crafted from Aglianico 100% , this wine expresses the unique terroir characteristics. The palate shows depth and structure, with a finish that lingers pleasantly. The fruit is sourced from vineyards from vines grown with the "sistema del taglio" that provides a phenomenon of dehydration of the bunch and then light withering. Vinification: red vinification and alcoholic fermentation in steel. The wine is aged 6 months in wood and 6 months in bottle. A wine reflecting the volcanic soils of Mount Vulture.
