Sorrentino
Don Paolo Aglianico
Pompeiano, Napoli, Campania, Italy
This is the Pompeiano Aglianico IGT. Yes the Vesuvius Pompei. And guess what? Yes there is a smoky mineral intensity to this. And a beautiful dark cherry fruitiness. In the mouth the Aglianico tannins are well managed and the balance is really nice. Astounding value.

Very good! Don't know this grape. Ruby but not deep red, translucent along the rim. Paired with organic beef cheeseburger & sweet potato. I use grey poupon on burgers which are prepared with Worcestershire, onion powder, pepper and finished with course Kosher salt
