Taurasini Donna Chiara is a sunny, juicy Aglianico with beautiful aromas of dark berries and cut flowers. The compact taste is harmoniously round with a wonderful spiciness and well-integrated tannins. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2021 Taurasini Donna Chiara is a deep purple color in the glass. It shows a dusty bouquet of dried violets, blackberries and menthol. It’s soft-textured yet sleek, with crisp red and black fruits carried across a core of citrus-infused acidity. The 2021 tapers off with a bitter twang while maintaining a lovely energy and freshness. This would excel best alongside a hearty meal." Vinous

Opulent, savoury fruit, plus sage, ginger and thyme. Very soft and rich on the palate, fresh and agile as it progresses, finally reaching its persistent and mineral final. A terroir growth full of character and complexity. SUPERIORE.DE

"A fine expression from a warmer year. Peach, raw almond, apricot kernel and a noble quinine bitterness embrace an inherent ripeness. An engaging column of saltiness and a current of gentle, maritime freshness. Perfect balance, the result. In such vintages, there is always a tendency towards excess. The winners are those who avoid this. Here's an example." James Suckling

"Traces of chamomile complement sweet flowers and crushed yellow apples as the Fiano di Avellino 2022 opens in the glass. It is tangy and fresh, with a slightly effervescent feel. Salty mineral tones provide an echo of excitement. Young peach and sage notes linger as the 2022 finishes crisp." Vinous

Alexandros is a beautifully complex and expressive white from Campania. The aromas of light stone fruit, flowers and a fine minerality come together in the harmonious bouquet. Crisp clean taste with a fresh finish. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2022 Greco di Tufo Alexandros is remarkably beautiful in the glass. An unobtrusive blend of young peach, melon and sweet smoke forms its bouquet. A lively acidity and mineral tones complete the ripe fruit that washes over the palate. The 2022 finishes fresh and medium-length, with lingering notes of candied lime." Vinous

"Vinosity, the highlight. Apricot peel, canned peach, nectarine pulp, tamarind and quince paste. The mid palate, powerful and thoroughly convincing. This is a fine Greco, even in the context of the vintage. It rides a wave of quince paste phenomena as well as the underlying touch of freshness." James Suckling

Taurasi Vigna Andrea - a rich Aglianico with excellent depth. On the nose, varietal aromas of dark cherries, plums, smoke, cedar and tobacco that develop wonderfully over time. Complex on the palate with a fair amount of velvety tannins, lingering deep and masculine. Beautiful storage and ageing potential. SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2019 Taurasi Vigna Andrea seduces the senses with sweet exotic spice and cedar shavings, giving way to medicinal blackberries and cherries. It’s silky smooth and polished within. Vibrant acidity guides its ripe wild berry fruit as fine tannins slowly mount toward the close. The 2019 finishes lightly structured with lingering candied sweetness, tactile mineral tones and blood orange hints. The 2019 is deceptively approachable today, yet beautifully balanced for a long and prosperous evolution." Vinous
