Riserva Aglianico del Vulture

Another bottle at my birthday dinner. This was a fantastic wine for the $20 price!

Into this. Smooth.

Peppery, needed to breathe

Dirty dusty amazing.

Dark, brooding, and delicious. Great value and great with food or without. One of the best values I’ve found at TW. Thanks @Scott Petrus for the rec.

Earthy and delicious. This (mainly) obscure grape never disappoints and always excites. Does need some age to allow the oak to balance.

I want to drink this wine with every meal. It is full body, dark and wonderful.

The musk on this baby is driving me wild.

This is very good. The nose is a noble blend of fresh cherry-tobacco and a hint of creamy leather. A full mouth of medium+ bodied, peppery goodness, with the ash/minerality of southern Italy. Medium tannins. An efficient use of dollars.

91+ points

This wine is way under priced. The depth and tannins hold your attention all night. The flavors are unique in a red fruit way. Amazing wine.
