Elena Fucci's exceptional wine, Titolo, is built to last. It will continue to develop steadily for at least the next 20 years, which is why it is a real delight when fully matured, particularly in magnum format. Dark ruby red in colour, with aromas of ripe red fruits and a subtle woody spice on the nose. Blended with remarkable precision, the wine offers balanced intensity and a lovely degree of fruit purity, which speaks both for the Aglianico grape and for the extreme terroir from which it originates. Titolo impresses with its fine texture and elegantly integrated tannins. This is a masterful expression of Aglianico, just as we love it. SUPERIORE.DE

"Fragrant with tea rose, dried lavender, sage and sandalwood aromatics, this is structured on the palate, with grippy tannins, but also offers an appealing core of sweet black cherry and black raspberry fruit and minerally iron, tar and smoke. Bright and focused, this will benefit from air or cellaring." Wine Spectator

"The 2022 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo captures the imagination as a hint of ash and white smoke rises, giving way to notes of musk, blackcurrants, shaved cedar and mandarin peel. The texture is exciting, almost creamy yet energetic. A refreshing acidity and a core of ripe black fruit pave the way for tactile mineral notes. The finish is dramatically long and fresh, with a hint of fine-grained tannins. Liquorice and exotic spices permeate the finish. To be honest, I'm amazed that Elena Fucci's Titolo remains one of the region's top wines year after year, despite the creation of the Superiore, Amphora and Riserva. This is a fantastic wine." Vinous

"A refined, elegant expression of Aglianico. Light, floral aromas of roses and violets are accompanied by fresh notes of cherry. On the palate, it is lively and energetic, with youthful blackberry fruit taking centre stage. Still very young, with plenty of structure and remarkable minerality, this wine has many years ahead of it." Decanter
