Aglianico is a typically southern wine, introduced by the Greeks and splendidly acclimatized in Campania in the Provinces of Avellino and Benevento.
The wine shows a brilliant ruby red color and nuances of garnet red, moderate transparency. To the nose it has intense, clean, pleasing and elegant perfumes that open with notes of black cherry, plum and violet followed by good aromas of carob, blueberry, licorice and pleasant hints of vanilla and leather. The mouth has good correspondence to the nose, a slightly tannic attack however well balanced, good body and intense flavors. The finish is persistent with good flavors of plum and black cherry.
Aglianico is, together with Falanghina, the grape more representative of Benevento, a native grape that only here manages to offer these incredible scents.
