Pure variety Aglianico, whose grapes come from Pietradefusi and S. Angelo all'Esca Brilliant ruby red with garnet reflections, an enveloping bouquet of morello cherries and marasca cherries in harmony with notes of cinnamon and nutmeg, vanilla and aniseed. The full, balanced taste with sweet, silky tannins ends in an aromatic, persistent final. SUPERIORE.DE

"Aromas evoking black-skinned berry, new leather, blue flower, Asian spice and dried botanical herb waft out of the glass. On the taut, linear palate, youthfully austere, fine-grained tannins envelope cranberry, pomegranate, star anise and a hint of ground clove while surprisingly fresh acidity for the hot vintage keeps it balanced. It's still young and needs a few more years to unwind." Wine Enthusiast

"A meaty, enticing Taurasi that shows dried cloves, black pepper, berries, tobacco and spices. The full-bodied palate portrays a fascinating juxtaposition between driven, steely acidity and ripe dark fruit, with tea-bag character in the mix, too. Drink from 2021." James Suckling

"The 2015 Taurasi exudes a baroque opulence, with generous layers of tobacco, black cherry and chocolate. The acidity and minerality help to streamline the mouthfeel just a bit, but this remains a large-scale, full-bodied red nevertheless. This wine will be released at the end of this year. I could see a pairing with agnolotti stuffed with roasted meat. The warm and sunny 2015 vintage was especially kind to the Aglianico grape." Robert Parker
