Potenza, Basilicata, Italy
Beautiful cherry, dusty chocolate and smoky tar aromas very pushed forward. Flavors are juicy, silky and firm with remarkable tannic grip. Black pepper and grainy cocoa powder lingering on the cat tongue finish. There’s both a resinous and a fresh quality, owing to terrific acidity. Simply outstanding example of volcanic Aglianico at a great price.
