Winery: Antonio Caggiano / Taurasi
Enticing scents of blue flower, woodland berry, moist earth and chopped herb lift out of the glass. The elegant palate delivers juicy black cherry, raspberry, star anise and cinnamon set against a backbone of firm but refined tannins. It’s impeccably balanced, with bright acidity. Hold for even more complexity and to let the tannins unwind. Drink 2020–2033.
