Grifalco, Damaschito Aglianico del Vulture

"A polished, elegant Aglianico from vines over sixty years old."

Aromas of brandy-dipped cherry, rooibos, vanilla and violet perfume the nose and extend to the juicy yet taut palate. There's plushness to the tannins that makes this accessible in the near term, but it should hold well through 2030.
