Regular price $60.00
Sold out

This wine is 100% Aglianico from Campania. A newer style of wine for the region. Marco Tinessa makes his wines in amphora, shunning the usage of oak that is traditional for the region. His wines are still big, brooding, and tannic, full of wild strawberry and dark plum notes. While this wine will reward cellaring, it will be perfect now with smoked sausage pizza, lamb, an pasta and meat sauce.

Details

100% Aglianico from two vineyards as of the 2021 vintage: one in Montemerano (Avellino), historically known as the best site in the Taurasi appellation (Marco’s vines here average 30 years old), and the other at Castelfranci at 500 mt, southwest exposition, with vines ranging from 50-90 years in age. Both are organically farmed. The Aglianico is de-stemmed by hand and maceration lasts for a month in concrete vats. The wine goes through fermentation spontaneously in glass-lined vats and ages for 18 months in ceramic/gres amphora resulting in better oxygenation. It is neither fined nor filtered. This wine is reputable for its full, succulent and yet tenacious character. Gritty tannins beckon longevity.
