Collection: Aglianico

Aglianico is one of the oldest and most recognized red grapes in Italy. It originates from the Basilicata and Campania regions in the southeast and is particularly famous for its use in the production of high-quality red wine in the area.

The Aglianico grapes produce a powerful, tannic and full-bodied wine with notes of cherry, blueberry, pepper, chocolate and licorice. The wines are often matured in oak barrels, which gives them a taste of nuts, leather and tobacco.

Aglianico wines have a high alcohol percentage, typically around 14%, and their tannins are often potent and can give a hint of bitterness. They are some of the most complex and powerful red wines in Italy and often require some time in the cellar to achieve full maturity.

Aglianico wines can be enjoyed alone or with hearty dishes, including meat, cheese and pasta with hearty sauces. They are particularly suitable for accompanying lamb, beef and game.

Aglianico is a grape with a long history and tradition, and the wines made from this grape are considered some of the best in Italy. Their complexity and power make them a favorite among many wine lovers and collectors.
