There are ripe notes here of blackberry preserves, blueberry tart, chocolate and black stone that accompany this wine over its long finish. The wine has jackhammer tannins and enormous structure that need a few more years in the bottle to soften up. 1 Note
Here’s a heavily perfumed Aglianico from Southern Italy with aromas of sandalwood and incense backed by black fruit, prune and Indian spice. If you love thick, dense wines, this one is for you. Try it with pork chops in heavy barbecue seasoning. The mouthfeel is bright, sweet and you can feel the high alcohol at the end. 1 Note
Extreme spice, clove, black pepper and dark granite stone characterize the nose of this ripe Aglianico from Southern Italy. Mature notes of strawberry and raspberry play a supporting role and the wine is tart and crisp on the close. It would make an easy pairing to pasta and simple tomato sauce. 1 Note
