Aglianico Irpinia Doc 2019 75 cl Montesole

MONT AGL

The grape variety used to produce this red wine of great finesse originates from the famous Vitis Hellenica (Aglianico) in the version grown in the Irpinia district.

The wine is aged for one year in casks and barriques. It is ruby red, velvety, intense and persistent on the nose with a dry and harmonic flavour. Simple, yet able to develop into a beautiful precious wine, it matches with meat dishes, game and spiced cheeses.
