ASUNCION RIDGE VINEYARDS' Aglianico offers a powerful and structured 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 the volcanic slopes of Vulture in Basilicata, where it can produce wines of formidable character and longevity. Expect notes of black cherry, plum, blackberry, dried herbs, smoke, leather, earth, licorice, and sometimes iron-like mineral notes. The wine's structure is imposing when young but rewards thoughtful aging for a polished, cellar-worthy experience. It pairs beautifully with robust dishes like lamb, beef, and grilled meats.
