SOCIETA AGRICOLA NATIV

Societa Agricola Nativ's Aglianico offers a powerful expression of southern Italian red wine with dark fruit, firm tannin, high acidity, and volcanic-earth depth. While the exact origin is unknown, this grape's classic zones include Taurasi in Campania and Vulture in Basilicata, where it thrives on volcanic soils and long growing seasons. Expect a wine that can be both rustic and sophisticated, with notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, dried herbs, smoke, leather, earth, licorice, and sometimes iron-like mineral notes. It demands thoughtful winemaking to bring out its structure, which includes high acidity and firm tannin, giving the wines tension and age potential. Pair it with robust foods like lamb, beef, or grilled meats for a satisfying pairing experience.
