Poliphemo Taurasi Aglianico 2019

Daaaaaaang this is amazing! Pro ratings are too low. Tecce aromatics are so good. Flowers, iron, tar and macerated berries on the nose upon opening. Incredible balance of fruit and minerals with a metallic tone. Hint of licorice. I just opened it and it’s already so complex with little alcohol showing through. Lots of Mediterranean herbs, hay and grape stems on the finish, with a nicely tannic bitter final note. Super long, easing into dusty dried fruit. Absolutely excellent. So smooth and drinkable for a 15-percenter. — 2 months ago

Vigna Cinque Querce Taurasi Aglianico 2015

Mo
9.2

WS: 93. Suave and harmonious, with a firm frame of fine-grained tannins married to ripe black and red currant fruit, iron and ash, anise, black tea leaf and citrus peel notes. This expands on the palate and through the long, mouthwatering finish. Drink now through 2035. 950 cases made, 400 cases imported.

Radici Taurasi Aglianico 2018

If I could shower love on one varietal that doesn’t get enough love it would be this Aglianico. Dark small currants, blackberries & black plum on palate; smoke & camphor on nose. Pitch perfect balance between freshness & power, which I think is Aglianico ‘s great balancing act. Sweet drinking window now but this has legs too—-oh, & price is an absurd 30$ for this quality of wine & winemaking. — a month ago
