Description

Still red wine from Molise, 14.5% ABV, 100% Aglianico. Produced by Di Majo Norante, a historic winery since 1968. 0.75 L bottle, 2020 vintage. An Aglianico Riserva that expresses the elegance and power of the grape variety, with maceration on the skins for approximately one month. Aged partly in oak barrels and partly in stainless steel tanks, followed by six months in bottle. A clean and compact ruby color, the nose offers a complex bouquet with spicy notes of green pepper and coriander, hints of undergrowth, tobacco leaves, and bitter cocoa. On the palate, it is full-bodied and flavorful, with a long finish of cinchona and rhubarb.

Di Majo Norante has been making wine from grapes ever since 19th century, as is evidenced by the old cellars underneath the square and in the old family building at Campomarino. Commitment to grape growing was inherited first of all by Luigi and then by Alessio Di Majo and continues today alongside research and experimentation. Di Majo Norante produces its own wines from grapes grown in the 123 hectare vineyard of the ancient fief of Marquises Norante di Santa Cristina.

Di Majo Norante wine-making philosophy is consistent with a traditional approach to grape growing and wine production, centred on preserving all the characteristics of Mediterranean wine-making. Read more
