“The 2022 Aglianico del Vulture blossoms in the glass with a pretty bouquet of dried violets, crushed blackberries and mandarin zest. It's round, vibrant and soft-textured, with tart black fruits and savory herbal tones that embellish the close. This tapers off long, perfumed and gently grippy, leaving a pleasantly tart resonance to linger. This is just pure, no-frills Aglianico. It's a total pleasure to drink.”
“Black cherries, wet earth and dried herbs on the nose of this dark-fruited red. It’s firm and structured, but balanced, with a medium body and good freshness. Drink or hold.”
