How is Made
VINIFICATION: It is a pure Aglianico, dense, full-bodied and destined to a very long evolution over the years. The hand-picked grapes are crushed and destemmed and fermented spontaneously using only indigenous yeasts in steel containers with maceration on the skins for about 25 days. Aging in 225 liter barriques for a period of 36 months and then for about a 4 years in the bottle.
CHARACTERISTICS: Intense ruby red color, on the nose complex aromas of ripe red fruits, including cherry and sweet spices, hints of tobacco up to iron and animal textures. In the mouth it is full bodied, incisive with tannins well present and supported by a freshness that leads back to balsamic notes. The “Riserva della Famiglia” will surely express all its power with the evolution in bottle after many years. Great wine to be paired with the whole meal with main courses of roast meat, game and aged cheeses.
