Lovely example of a nicely-constructed Aglianico with some age on the bottle. Lots of fruit remaining, and well-integrated. Nice showcase of the varietal.

Bright purple. Really great wine - a surprise. I could drink a lot of this and be very happy. Aromas and flavours of blackberry and black cherry, with a strong vein of licorice running through it. Savoury, herby tannins on the back palate. Medium length. So very, very good with food.

Intense, lively purple; opaque at centre but bright at rim. Attractive nose of sour cherries, or perhaps balsamic. Lovely soft mouthfeel; rich with a hint of sweetness. Quite a high level of acidity. Fine tannins. 13.5% alc. Long finish. A wine of real character and interest. Recommended.

Beautiful deep ruby hue. Lovely wine and fabulous QPR. Lots going on with some cherries and spice. Drinking in its prime now.
