2015 was a very warm year with relatively little rainfall and an overall highly positive course for wine production. Dense, compact garnet red. In the lush bouquet lots of warmth and besides the classic notes like cherry, plum and graphite we find eucalyptus and pepper. Extremely lush and spicy on the palate as well, with an invigorating freshness and sheer richness that, together with elegant tannins, will ensure wonderful ageing potential. A deep and very plump wine with unmistakable Aglianico personality! SUPERIORE.DE

"The 2015 Terra di Lavoro is a blend of 80% Aglianico and 20% Piedirosso, although you most certainly get herbaceous or pyrazine-driven aromas of green spice and bitter coffee that recall the Cabernet family. Beyond those more pointedly aromatic components, the bouquet offers spice, sweet tobacco, blackberry fruit and dried cherry. The vines are now aged from 16 to 26 years old, and they are located at 450 meters above sea level in the volcanic soils of the extinct Roccamonfina volcano. This was a hot vintage that offers exuberant and opulent fruit, followed by structure and soft tannins." Robert Parker

"A powerful yet balanced red with glorious dark fruits, sweet tobacco, dark mushroom and flowers. Full body, chewy and rich tannins and a long and powerful finish." James Suckling
