2007 Aglianico Vignantica IGT

The old Aglianico grape variety produces powerful reds and this is a wonderfully structured award-winning wine from the southern region of Campania.

Aglianico is this young winery's speciality. From vineyards on south-facing slopes at around 200 metres above sea level in the area of Castel Campagnano in Caserta province in the north of Campania.
