D’ANGELO AGLIANICO DEL VULTURE
$20.99
The DOC entry wine of Casa Vinicola D’Angelo is Aglianico del Vulture, a delicious red to enjoy to the very last sip. In the first years, this Aglianico wine may appear a little vivacious or even sharp, however, over
time, as it refines in the bottle, it becomes more mellow and harmonious. It goes very well with all meat courses and flavourful or not too sophisticated dishes.
Colour: Fairly intense ruby red, turns to garnet as it ages.
Bouquet: Berries, typical of this vine variety.
Flavours: Dry, robust and fairly tannic. Over the years, it becomes more mellow and harmonious.
Harvested exclusively by hand in mid/late October
Vinification traditional technique, 8-day maceration with the grape skins
Refinement 18 months in large barrels
Alcohol content 13.5%
- Size: .750L
