Not a big structure but an extremely drinkable wine with plenty of fruit and pleasing earth.

Juicy blackberries, cassis, currants sprinkled with every form of peppercorn. Good structure and full body.

Tasty, bright, juicy, generous, and deep. A hint of funk that provides some treble to the wine.

Tremendously gulpable Aglianico...not something you can say about most wines from this massively grape. Ash, minerals, popping-ripe black currants, cracking acidity, reasonably firm tannins.

Dusty, sour cherries on the nose. Tannic attack! Young, vibrant, and warming. The perfect winter quaff with a big hearty meal. A terrific Cilento wine from a producer who's in Ms. Jancis Robinson's big atlas. Vintage 2012

Extremely good value, high quality, and very drinkable Aglianico - especially for such a young wine.
