Description

Bright ruby. Balsamic nuances complement black cherry and dark plum aromas and flavors, sexed up by hints of chocolate and coffee. Smooth, dense and juicy, offering a suave mouthfeel and a very long finish. Outstanding Aglianico del Vulture, featuring truly noteworthy, lingering floral and spicy perfume. This is meant to be the estate’s most classic Aglianico del Vulture, but in fact, I find it bears more than a passing resemblance to Elena Fucci’s Aglianico del Vulture Titolo. Made from a blend of grapes picked in different sites, but the vines average 30 years of age (those used to make the Gricos are instead 15 years old). . -- Ian D'Agata,
