v17. Pretty good! First time with this area. Pleasant peppery, cedar and black cherry nose. Luscious, deep, black cherry fruit. Long, chewy, slightly astringent leather finish. Enjoyable! — a month ago

Taurasi DOCG, Campania, Italy 🇮🇹

Overview
Made from 100% Aglianico grapes, this Taurasi is a classic expression of Campania’s most noble red. Known as the “Barolo of the South,” it undergoes a 15-day maceration on the skins, followed by malolactic fermentation and aging in French barriques (12 months), with another 24 months in bottle before release.

Aromas & Flavors
Intensely aromatic with blackberry, plum, cherry, cacao, and roasted coffee. On the palate: bone-dry, full-bodied, and warm, showing firm tannins, layered dark fruits, and an elegant structure with long persistence.

Mouthfeel
Structured and powerful, yet balanced. Rich tannins, dry finish, and remarkable depth that underline its long aging potential.

Winemaking Notes
Traditional hand-harvested Aglianico grapes, carefully vinified and matured. The barrique aging adds polish and subtle complexity while keeping the robust Taurasi soul intact.

Food Pairing
Perfect with hearty dishes: pasta with rich ragù, grilled steaks, game meats, and long-aged cheeses.

Verdict
A bold, structured, and age-worthy Taurasi with elegance and intensity. Built to age, but already showing its class in the glass. 🍷🔥
