the wine
Aglianico is the grape they call the Barolo of the South, and this bottle from the hills above Benevento shows why without the collector price. It carries real backbone, the kind of red built for the table rather than the spotlight. Open it for a long Sunday lunch, a tray of roast meat, or a board of aged cheese, and it holds its own to the last plate.
tasting notes
Deep red with purple hues. Decisive, with a complex aroma of red fruit and spice. Intense, full and enveloping, with lingering spice and red fruit.

from Tombacco.
This Aglianico comes from the hills of Beneventano in Campania, the southern Italian heartland of a grape built for the long haul. Tombacco bottles it as an honest, food-first red that shows the variety's backbone without the collector price.
