Elena Fucci's exceptional Titolo wine is built for the long haul. It will continue its steady development for at least the next 20 years, which is why it is particularly enjoyable when aged in magnum format. Dark ruby red in colour, the bouquet has aromas of ripe red fruit and a fine woody spice. The wine is assembled with enormous precision, offering a balanced intensity and a beautiful degree of fruit purity that speaks both in favour of the Aglianico grape and the extreme region that produces it. Titolo impresses with its fine texture and elegantly integrated tannins. This is the kind of masterful Aglianico performance we love. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo tempts the imagination as a whiff of ash and white smoke blows off to reveal musky black currants, shaved cedar and tangerine zest. This is texturally thrilling, nearly creamy in feel yet energetic. Cooling acidity and a core of ripe black fruits give way to tactile mineral tones. This finishes dramatically long and fresh, with a staining of fine-grained tannins. Licorice and exotic spice percolate through the close. Frankly, I'm amazed that even with the creation of the Superiore, Amphora and Riserva, Elena Fucci's Titolo remains one of the top wines in the region year after year. This is fantastic juice." Vinous

"A refined, elegant expression of Aglianico. Lifted floral aromas of rose and violet are accompanied by fresh cherry scents. The palate is vibrant and energetic; youthful bramble fruit dominates. Still very young, with plenty of grip and notable minerality, this has many years ahead of it." Decanter
