Brilliant ruby Aglianico from Campania's volcanic soils near Mount Vesuvius, Feudi di San Gregorio's 2017 Taurasi layers maraschino cherry and warm spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, anise, with a soft, balanced structure that doesn't lean on heavy tannin. A modern take on centuries of tradition; this is what happens when serious winemakers stop pretending Aglianico needs to be austere.
Winemaker Notes
Brilliant ruby red with garnet reflections, fragrant perfumes of maraschino cherry, cinnamon and nutmeg, vanilla and anise. The taste is full and balanced with sweet and soft tannins that confer a good aromatic persistence.
