A flagship Campanian red, this Aglianico (80%) and Piedirosso (20%) blend is from Alto Casertano on volcanic soils with western exposure. At 450m, the altitude is crucial in this warmer climate compared to Irpinia. The hot 2017 vintage was interpreted in an outstanding way, with a fruity nose full of Mediterranean herbs, plus crunchy fruits on the palate. Firm yet ripe tannins and refreshing acidity give great balance to the dense, velvety fruit, with a cioccolato di Modica finish. Delicious to drink now, with potential for the long haul.
