The polished, detailed, and expansive 2016 Vigneti Del Vulture Aglianico Piano Del Cerro Basilicata is just entering its prime, kicking off what promises to be an incredible run of beauty and quality in the cellar. It’s a Southern Italian classic that ages like a fine Barolo yet develops a bit earlier, emerging with a seductive, spicy power—and it comes at a great price.
Dark ruby-garnet center with ruby-brick hues at the rim. The nose is classic Aglianico, with soft, polished touches of black pepper, plum, smashed black raspberry, dried violet, licorice root, and dried blueberry. Dried herbs, crushed volcanic minerals, and the enticing petrichor smell of wet, warm concrete are all on display. Mouthfilling and expansive, with nice attention to detail in its polished tannin profile. This Aglianico shows the roots of its volcanic origins in spades, and it’s starting to hit the best years of its life. Drink now–2037.
