Aglianico, an ancient wine with roots that are difficult to trace. It is surrounded by many stories and legends. However, one thing is certain: it is a noble wine that tells of the territory in which it was born. This land, enriched by diverse artistic and cultural influences over time, has preserved in a very good way the finest qualities of each.

Vinification: the wine is made in a traditional manner through daily pumping over for the first 3-4 days after the harvest. After this initial phase then follows a lengthy daily pumping until the alcoholic fermentation is accomplished. The skins are softly pressed, in order to obtain the best conditions for the start of the malolactic fermentation. After the wine is racked 2 or 3 times before being transferred partly into steel vats and partly into 500 liters tonneaus for the ageing process.

Tasting notes: It has a dark, deep, ruby red colour with clear purplish tones. This wine is clear and complex, with enjoyable hints of cherry and red berries fragrance, followed by a marked vanilla and spicy note. Excellent mouth entry, elegant and warm, sapid and fullbodied. Good length and persistence that leaves an enjoyable soft sensation and a pleasant mouth which asks for another sip. 

Food pairing: combines very well with all roasted red meats and aged cheeses.

Alcohol content: 14% vol.

Serving temperature: 18-20°C

Awards 2019: Berliner Wein Trophy Gold Medal, International Wine & Spirit Competition Silver Medal, International Wine Challenge recommended, Mundus Vini Meininger Silver Medal
