Aglianico grapes are grown in Molise for this top-quality red wine. This grape variety is not often seen, but it is invaluable. It has a long history in Italy but originates in Greece. The grapes come from a beautiful vineyard in a southeastern, warm location, planted in 1968. To ensure optimal ripeness, the Aglianico can only be harvested in October, and this is done entirely by hand. The finest bunches are selected and transported in small crates to Di Majo Norante.
Once the grapes arrive at Di Majo Norante, they are crushed and pressed. This red wine then ages for a full eighteen months in oak barrels. During this crucial period, the wine develops and develops a unique character. Upon pouring, we see a beautiful dark red color with a purple rim. The aroma offers the most beautiful impressions of black fruit, a touch of smoke, licorice, and, of course, vanilla. The palate is a pure treat for the palate, pampered by black fruit, ripe tannins, and a perfect dose of spice. Swirl the wines vigorously on the palate, and you'll also taste oak and vanilla, along with a touch of sweet plum.
