Description
An austere and complex wine with excellent drinkability and great ageing potential. A modern interpretation of the style of the great Taurasi of the 50s and 60s. Stilèma Taurasi is the fruit of a work of composition of different yet synergistic micro-territorial stories, which create a unique and complex expressive force. Pietradefusi, Montemarano, Paternopoli and Mirabella Eclano are the different family sites from which the grapes come, differing in altitude, microclimate and soils.
