Aglianico from COLLI DI LAPIO offers a powerful southern Italian red with dark fruit, firm tannin, high acidity, and volcanic-earth depth. As one of southern Italy's most important grapes, Aglianico is often linked to ancient viticulture but its modern reputation rests on deeply structured wines from places such as Taurasi and Vulture in Campania and Basilicata. Expect a wine with black cherry, plum, and blackberry notes, complemented by dried herbs, smoke, leather, earth, licorice, and sometimes iron-like mineral notes. With high acidity and firm tannin, these wines provide structure and age potential, making them best enjoyed with food that can meet their bold character, such as lamb, beef, or grilled meats.
