Expert's View
“Aglianico is one of the great five wild Italian red grapes, the last one to be really discovered and the one with the least number of high-level protagonists. The De Conciliis family have really worked as light and pretty and midweight as you possibly can achieve with Aglianico, not that it's toned down and made facile, but just rendered drinkable in an everyday expression of Aglianico, while still retaining its intrinsic interest.” ~ Clear Wine Co's Wine Expert
