A very enticing ensemble, here is a fruity-floral white with fresh tones of yellow rose, acacia, melon, pear and Golden Delicious apple. It is lean and crisp in the mouth with lingering mineral tones over a lengthy finish. WE NEED AN APPELLATION CALLED SANT'AGATA DEI GOTI

Cesco di Nece is a dark, inky Aglianico that opens with aromas of dried tobacco, licorice and bitter chocolate. It’s a bruiser wine with dark extraction and rock-solid structure.

Sour cherry, cranberry, licorice and cola open the nose of Mustilli’s Piedirosso. This is an easy, fresh wine that would pair with pizza or pasta topped with loads of cheese.

This is a heavier and thicker expression of Falanghina that opens with aromas of pineapple, melon, stone fruit and lemon zest. That density continues to the mouth and the wine would pair with spicy Thai or Chinese food.

From the Sant’Agata dei Goti area of southern Italy, this hay-colored Falanghina offers mature aromas of melon, lemon drop and exotic fruit. The mouthfeel carries heft and power.

This Aglianico imparts bright berry fruit, candied cherry, blueberry, licorice, white mushroom and a hearty dose of licorice. Dark, mysterious and dense, it has a solid structure and good length and would pair well with stewed rabbit or roasted lamb.

The emphasis here is the purity of territory-driven aromas: You’ll get distinct volcanic notes of granite, campfire, pencil lead and minerals. There’s little fruit here, but the tannins are very firm and dusty. This 50-50 Aglianico and Piedirosso blend has highly recognizable qualities that identify its southern Italian origins.

A small portion of Merlot (15%) is blended into this Aglianico-based wine to achieve plush concentration and inviting aromas of forest berry, cookie dough, peppermint, Porcini mushroom, spice and loads of licorice. It’s a very solid and tannic wine that would pair well with hearty meat or game dishes: Oak-aged for 12 months.
