Expect a robust and structured Aglianico from PIETRACUPA, Italy's most important red grape variety known for its dark fruit, firm tannin, high acidity, and volcanic-earth depth. This Table Red Wine showcases the classic zones of Taurasi in Campania and Vulture in Basilicata, where it thrives on volcanic soils and long growing seasons to reach full flavor maturity while preserving freshness. With notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, dried herbs, smoke, leather, earth, licorice, and sometimes iron-like mineral notes, this wine demands thoughtful winemaking and time in bottle. It pairs beautifully with robust dishes like lamb, beef, braised pork, aged cheeses, bitter greens, tomato-rich sauces, mushrooms, and grilled meats.
