About this product
Italy's most celebrated Aglianico del Vulture and arguably southern Italy's finest red wine — a single-vineyard Aglianico from organic estate vines on Monte Vulture's volcanic soils, showing extraordinary dark cherry, violet, iron mineral, tobacco and volcanic ash complexity with the fierce tannin structure that demands 8–10 years cellaring and rewards patience with 25+ years of magnificent development.
