3rd tasting Aglianico vintage 2005 Again overwhelming tertiary aromas, cedar, wet leaves, smoke, tobacco and liquorice, primary aromas predominantly black currant.
Black fruits and a medium acidity in the attack on palate. Med+ astringency that dominates balance. Mild alcohol. Medium finish without additional layers or complexity. Well integrated.

era molto tempo che non mi capitava di assaggiare un Camarato, e devo dire che ho apprezzato molto questa bottiglia di 2005, dal naso per nulla sfacciato, con sentori minerali di grafite e pietra focaia, frutta rossa e nera matura ma non surmatura, elicriso, e pepe nero. Al palato manca qualche eccesso di grassezza e struttura che ricordavo in annate antecedenti, anzi qui tannini piuttosto solidi dominano il campo, assieme ad una sinergia sapidità/freschezza che conferisce un'ottima bevibilità.

During a tasting. Medium garnet. Discrete nose of red berries, earth, oak and a hint of mint. Medium body with pronounced, drying tannins. Needs to have softer tannins for a higher note.

Italy Tasting @ friend's house. Medium garnet color. Pretty expressive nose of red berries (raspberries, red cherry), some dried fruit, fruit compote and some flowers (rose, violet). Medium body, medium-high acidity and medium tannins, but definitely on the dry side. It's probably a little young but I doubt that the tannins will ever fully integrate before the fruit dries out. A. Galloni (who I think very highly of) rates it 93P. In our tasting group, this was one of the least favorite wines of the night.

Smokey black olive nose, hints of sweet vanilla, which carries through to the palate with lively acid fruits. Richness and elegance leading to dry upfront tannins. Very typical of the best characteristics of Aglianico. Powerful stuff, will develop.

Balanced. Good structure. I believe it will evolve well in the next 5 years.
