Offering a transparent view onto this versatile red grape from Campania, the 2016 Aglianico is redolent of bright cherry and blackberry with spicy notes of tar and cured tobacco at the back. Those savory aromas are mild, and they appear to emerge from the grape itself. However, this wine does see barrel age, and of course that has contributed to the stability and the structure of the wine. Some 150,000 bottles were made.
