Best Aglianico |
Lovely. Fresh red fruits. pot pourri and spice. Fine firm tannins. med bodied nice fine structure length. |
A touch green/herbal - white peppery - but nice juicy plum and varietal spice - liquorice, sandalwood and tar. Good persistence/freshness. |
Fullness and plushness to the fruit with great balance of fruit and spice components. Tannins in balance to the level of fruit. Quite a generous style but well balanced. |
M cherry red. Peppery, v. dusty, earthy, lacking fruit lift. Pal is very savoury. Delicious mouth-coating tannins. Nice fleshy fruit on the palate. Dark cherries, and wild berries. Lighter structure. Palate props this wine up; it is very moreish. Dustiness blows off. Long. This opens up |
