Full, floral and sophisiticated, with leather, earth, licorice and floral aromas. Very rich, tight and masculine, with big-time tannins pushing heavy plum, fudge and tobacco flavors. Nothing timid here.

Highly concentrated and impenetrable, this oak-driven Aglianico del Vulture boasts pretty aromas of spice, tobacco, black tea, granite and ripe blackberry fruit. It lasts for many long minutes and awards a dense, thick texture that would pair with chili or winter stew.

There’s a nervous, thorny quality to this wine that comes forth as exotic spice, cola and ripe blackberry. The wine has a deeply extracted appearance and a rich ruby color with lingering oak-driven notes of spice and toast.

Richly textured and velvety, this austere Aglianico del Vulture from Basilicata’s (southern Italy) volcanic soils exhibits refined aromas of granite, forest fruit, apple, root beer and spice. The wine is well-extracted and lasts long thanks to its polished tannins.

Pacus is a sharply defined red wine from Basilicata (the arch of the boot of Italy) with bright aromas of black fruit, plum and currant. There’s a drying mineral tone of brimstone or slate roof and an earthy touch of wild mushroom as well.

Divinus is a superrich and concentrated Aglianico from Basilicata that needs a few more years of cellar aging in order to soften those firm tannins. Even at this young age, it shows impressive aromas of smoke, ash, black fruit, leather and spicy cigar tobacco.

This Fiano is a bit flat in the mouth and offers aromas of pressed yellow rose, butterscotch and sun-dried apricot. The wine is correct, albeit one dimensional.
