    This bold Aglianico has mature black-fruit aromas, with whiffs of eucalyptus, spice and leather. The juicy palate delivers a concentrated, black cherry flavor that's accented by black pepper. It's well balanced, with fresh acidity and firm but tightly-knit tannins.

    Dark volcanic influences are evident here and shape this impenetrable and intense Aglianico. Aromas include blackberry, chocolate fudge, spice, smoke and rhubarb. The wine is elegant and tight with dusty tannins and sour cherries on the close. Drink after 2010.
