It presents an intense ruby red colour, while its \u003cstrong\u003ecomplex aromatic profile\u003c\/strong\u003e releases notes of blackberry, plum and black cherry enriched by balsamic and spicy hints. On the palate, it is dry and enveloping, supported by \u003cstrong\u003eelegant tannins\u003c\/strong\u003e and a pleasant mineral savouriness that accompanies a long and persistent finish. This expression of Aglianico is perfect for pairing with \u003cstrong\u003estructured first courses\u003c\/strong\u003e and meat-based main dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhere it comes from\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis wine originates in the province of Avellino, at the heart of the Taurasi area. The grapes come from the historic \u003cstrong\u003ePiano di Montevergine vineyard\u003c\/strong\u003e, a symbolic plot for the winery that takes its name from the famous local sanctuary. In Sorbo Serpico, the vines grow integrated into a unique landscape, surrounded by \u003cstrong\u003ehazelnut groves and olive groves\u003c\/strong\u003e. This particular agricultural coexistence positively influences the taste of the wine, giving it a \u003cstrong\u003estrong territorial connection\u003c\/strong\u003e and making it an authentic expression of its place of origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow it is produced\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduction begins with alcoholic fermentation and maceration on the skins in steel tanks for about three or four weeks, extracting colour and structure. Subsequently, the wine matures for a period between eighteen and twenty-four months in \u003cstrong\u003eFrench oak barrels\u003c\/strong\u003e, favouring a medium toasting. This stage is fundamental to impart roundness and promote the perfect integration of aromas. The process concludes with a prolonged \u003cstrong\u003ebottle ageing\u003c\/strong\u003e of two years, essential to harmonise the overall balance and ensure the wine's excellent \u003cstrong\u003ecapacity for evolution\u003c\/strong\u003e over time.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHistory and Curiosities\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAglianico, a noble grape variety celebrated by the ancient Romans as “Hellenico”, gives rise to \u003cstrong\u003eTaurasi Riserva DOCG\u003c\/strong\u003e, an authentic Campanian gem crafted by Feudi di San Gregorio.
