Penetrating deep crimson. Bold and intoxicating nose of sun ripened blackberries and bramble fruits, figs, leather, tar and roses, root beer, and black tea. Power and levity define the palate. Dimension abounds with luscious, ripe red fruits balanced by full, chalky tannins. Incredibly long finish. This stunning wine pleads for a charcuterie accompaniment and is my favorite Aglianico since the 2015 vintage.
