Taburno, Beneventano

Fontanavecchia

Aglianico del Taburno 2018

Lots of dark fruit in the nose, and a bit of what smells like cinnamon. Plum, dark cherry, leather. Dusty tannins coat the mouth. At 13%; lots of flavor and depth. Enjoyed with bucatini and sauce made with garden tomatoes. — a month ago

Janare Falanghina del Sannio

No formal notes - from half bottle. I have always loved the rich flavoursome notes of Falanghina from the Campania region of Italy with notes of honeysuckle and pear. Impossible not to like. — 2 years ago

Sannio Falanghina 2021

Falanghina is fun to share with wine novices and experts alike as they are slightly off the beaten track and utterly delicious. Golden yellow with a zesty, bitter salted almond note on the palate, they are voluptuous, not losing track of that sharp salinity, though. Very alive, bringing in under rich white peach and herbal notes to the mix, finishing floral with that almond note recurring. — 2 years ago

Nativ velluto rosso red velvet. Deep ruby coloration. No translucency. On the nose,
Cherry, smoke, earth, clay and minerals. On the palate, cherry, smoke, earth, minerals and a long finish of blueberry and vanilla. Full bodied, extremely smooth and velvety. Tannins are present but not overpowering. 2019. Outstanding value.

Taburno Aglianico 2011

Very rich and deep. Really singing now. Raging Aglianico tannins have been mellowed by 12 years in bottle but are still prominent with a bit of grip. Dark black fruit but tart, loads of acidity. Well balanced. Would have liked a bit more nose. — 3 years ago
