Fresh and vibrant Aglianico from reliable producer, fermented in steel, aged in FR oak for 18 months plus 9 in bottle prior its release. Deep ruby colour. Medium+ intensity aroma of cherries, tar, plums, graphite, spices, undergrowth. Full body, fresh, lively and slightly austere at this youthful stage. Fresh black fruit flavours intertwined with tannic texture and medium intensity acidity, medium finish.
