Score: ✧✧✧✧ |
This Aglianico del Vulture shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of
ruby red, little transparency. The nose denotes intense, clean, pleasing
and refined aromas which start with hints of black cherry, plum and
blackberry followed by aromas of blueberry, violet, vanilla, tobacco, pink
pepper, carob and cinnamon. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose,
a tannic attack and however balanced by alcohol, full body, intense
flavors. The finish is persistent with flavors of black cherry, plum and
blackberry. This wine ages for 12-18 months in barrique followed by at
least 6 months of aging in bottle.
