Organoleptic characteristics: straw-yellow with greenish tinges. Intense bouquet. Suave, round, lingering taste pleasing blend of floral and honeyed (but not sweet) flavors. The flavors and acidity are, in well-made specimens, elegantly balanced. It is interesting that some descriptions have it as a notably high-acid wine, while other reviewers describe it as soft and moderate to low in acid; presumably those are simply the results of different vinification methods. A touch of Salt…yep because it is close to sea.
Grape Variety: 80% Aglianico, 10% Sangiovese, 10% Merlot Organoleptic characteristics: intense ruby red color, powerfully aromatic with notes of dark cherries, prunes and roasted chestnuts. Dense plum and dark cherry flavors lead this Aglianico before yielding to notes of ground coffee, candied citrus peels and clove spices as it develops on the tongue. Serve with: fist courses, roasted meat, game.
