Aglianico 100%
Farnese Vini is an Italian wine group and one of the leading export companies in southern Italy. In Vulture, part of the Basilicata region, Vigneti Del Vulture produces wines from native varieties like Aglianico, Nero Di Troia, and Greco. Vesevo, named after the volcano Vesuvio, is located in Campania and spans over 60 hectares (148 acres) of vineyard land, making wines under the Greco di Tufo, Fiano di Avellino and Taurasi appellations.
Dark and understated in the glass. The 2019 Aglianico del Vulture Pian del Cerro blends shaved cedar with dusty stone and dried berry aromas. It’s silky-smooth with cooling acidity and crisply ripe red and black fruits that cascade across a core of brisk acidity. This finishes long, classically dry and structured. A web of fine-grained tannins blankets the senses as licorice and spice notes fade. Very nice. In fact, the only thing I can hold against the Pian del Cerro is the necessary heft of the bottle.
