It's austere, but that's why you bought a taurasi. Dried flowers, boysenberries, raspberries. Almost like an amarone. Well made; I think average score a tad low. Better than the 2016. — a year ago
The best white wine I've ever personally purchased from the store. This time, on a trip to Bolzano. — 2 years ago
2015: Outstanding Aglianico. Dominated by gobs of darker red fruit earlier on before picking up tertiary leather and graphite flavors. Rich and mouth coating and already drinking well, but clearly will get increasingly complex over time. $50 on Delectable. — 4 years ago

There are so many good wines outside of Italy’s main regions (Piemonte, Veneto, Toscana, etc.) as well as grapes... and they are hardly known in North America. Aglianico is a unknown beast.
Earthy. Hints of liquorice. So much going on here.
For a youthful wine, it drinks well.

Слива, черноплодка, ежевика, кофе, кожа, специи, кора, земля, тертый лист, ментол, лёгкая горечь в послевкусии. Среднее уверенное тело, хорошая кислотность, чуть шершавые танины. Ещё очень молодо, пить можно, но рано. Напористо и ярко, с ещё активным дубом, экстрактивно, но не перегружено и свежо на финише. Атлетично, загорело, немного жарко и самоуверенно, с потенциалом. — 7 years ago
