Description
"A wine which demonstrates that the Aglianico grown in the northwestern part of Puglia, just a short distance from the Basilicata, can compete with the best of Italy's south. Smoky and balsamic on the nose with intense and expansive notes of raspberries and blackberries, cloves, mint, and high-roast coffee, its packed, strappingly muscular, and dense flavors continue in a seamless flow over the palate, softening as the move but still totally mouth-filling and explosively powerful. The only regret is that theese wines are released too early and will probably be drunk too early as well - this is a bottle which I would not touch until 2007, and it will still be going strong in 2020."
