WINEMAKING
The winemaking of the Aglianico is made in a traditional manner through daily pumping over for the first 3-4 days after the harvest. When the alcoholic fermentation is over, the décuvage follows and the skins are softly pressed, in order to obtain the best conditions for the start of the malolactic fermentation. After the malolactic fermentation, the wine is racked 2 or 3 times before being transferred partly into steel vats and partly into 500 liters tonneaus for the aging process.

Tasting Notes
FLAVOUR
Excellent mouth entry, elegant and warm, sapid, and full-bodied. Good length and persistence that leaves an enjoyable soft sensation and a pleasant mouth which asks for another sip. With nuances of cherry, plum, and spice.
