Wine Details
Price:
$14.00 per bottle
Description:
Aglianico is the third of Italy's excellent native varieties. It is the noble vine of the south, considerably less known and less appreciated that the nebbiolo or the sangiovese.
Our Aglianico vineyard, the first in the United States, was begun in 1988 and now consists of 5 acres. It requires one of the longest growing seasons of any red grape, and we generally harvest it around the first of November. Our grapes produce a delightfully soft, well-structured wine with a strong hint of courants. Like Taurasi, the famous Italian aglianico wine, it can age for a long time, although our Aglianico is quite drinkable when young.
