Le fole Campania Aglianico
Pretty, pure, a bit grippy. Wish the VA were a bit less prominent. Still, it's super tasty

A beautiful and bright aglianico, with vibrant and rustic elements jumping out right after opening. Lots of tannins to compliment the blue/black fruit. Those aromatics though!

Feb 23rd, 2016Great wine, though a fleshier, plumper style than the the aglianicos I'm used to.
