Aglianico del Vulture 2020

A mystery I’ve never understood: why Aglianico ( in all its interpretations) does not get more love. Or perhaps I’m simply outside of the ring of knowledge. Regardless, this bottle has the characteristic black ink color, blackberry & black cherry notes, & freshness which I cherish in Aglianico. Never goopy. If I had to say, more medium bodied than not . Oh, & way under 20$- that’s criminal. — 20 days ago

I love Aglianico when done right, but am very cautious about buying because I’ve had too many astringently over-tannic examples. Those tannins are tricky to handle for winemakers. Vulture Aglianico tends to be a little less tannic in my (limited) experience.

L'Atto Aglianico 2022

Aged in barrels underneath Basilicata, you can taste the ashy notes of monte vulture. Very bold and refreshing. — 5 months ago

Aglianico del Vulture 2022

À very young vintage that is tasting nicely despite the tannic structure. Smoother and softer than the Taurasi aglianico wines - this wine is pairing nicely with our Italian meal. If you can find a bottle - you’ll find this a great value discovery! — a month ago

Teodosio Aglianico del Vulture 2020

Deep garnet, with volcanic mineralogy and black cherry on the nose. Mild tannins that provide structure supporting moderate alcohol (14%), medium acidity and some mild oak notes. Fantastically paired with tomato-based Napolian fried pizza. Aglianico is a varietal worthy of attention… — 8 months ago

Mmmmm. Smoky, earthy, rich, dense, smooth. Tea, raisins, tobacco notes, reasonably integrated structure with some heft. Nothing like a good 15 year old Aglianico with the mouthfeel and finish of a young Amarone. — 7 months ago
