Giornata
Luna Matta Vineyard Aglianico
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
At the crest of the mountain but very enjoyable. Still has life. Nose is mature currents and red fruit. You can taste the Paso soil! Great marriage of Italian and American wine. The palate is silky compared to when it was released and has bursts of fruit. Slightly hot. Throwing some sediment but still a long-ish finish.

A nice example of aglianico from Giornata in Paso. Blackberries on the nose with hints of earth, even at 7 years and after decanting, this still comes across as pretty youthful on the palate. Not as good as what you’ll find in Campagna...but still pretty tasty, a great match with paparadelle with wild boar ragut at a great Italian restaurant off of Spring Street in Paso...but pales in comparison to the best part of that photo!
