Monserrato 1973 Aglianico Rintocco 2019
Aglianico was one of the first vines to be planted on our estate back in 1998, using a mass selection from the entire Sannio wine-growing area. The Camaiola (Barbera del Sannio), planted in recent years in Monserrato, is also the result of a massive selection from the best vineyards in the area. We decided to blend them in this wine to embellish the austere character of Aglianico with the gracefulness, fragrance and softness of Camaiola.

Colour

Bouquet
