Villa Raiano Taurasi 2018
Red wine produced only with Aglianico grapes coming from the lower part of our 9 hectares located in Castelfranci, province of Avellino at 500 m asl. The grapes are picked by hand and carried to the cellar in small boxes to avoid crushing them. The wine, after the fementation, matures in oak barrels of different size for about 12 months, in stainless steel tanks for 12 months and in bottle for 12 months.

Colour

Dark, impenetrable ruby.

Bouquet

Aromas of black pepper, humus, nutmeg, rust and ripe plums create a glowing olfactory mix with an immediate impact, with smoky notes and dehydrated red flowers in support.

Flavour

Manly sip, of peremptory incisiveness in virtue of the dense but not astringent tannins and of the pointed sapidity that imprints the long final.

Pairing

Meat
Cheese
Matured cheese
Pork
