"A mid-weighted wine of immense character, showcasing the versatility of aglianico in the right hands. Fidelitous aromatics of dried tobacco, graphite, pithy black cherry and licorice root, strewn with wild herbs. Textbook aglianico. Not the most profound example, but expressive and built for immediate access. Exactly why it is the opening act, at a stellar address. Get it on the table! An everyday substitute for nebbiolo, with some southern warmth. Drink now."
