15 year old bottle. Hallelujah, I am a believer. The acidic structure long said to be legendary, amongst Aglianico has truly proven itself. Charred wood, pumice, volcanic rock comes through on the nose seriously..
. Bloody bandaid and home maid soy sauce as well....after the oxidative musk blows off, it reveals a florid Gardenia quality on the nose. I've had a few Aglianico expressions before, but never one so old as this... tomato leaf, dried cherry on the palate with so much acidic life on the finish. Incredible.
